This is the OLD VERSION. The new/updated version of the Ranger Handbook is the 2025 version and is available as the second edition to this book. The US Army Rangers are the world's premier light infantry fighting force. This book contains all of the materials of the official Ranger handbook carried by all Ranger school students. This is a large desk-top/bookshelf (8.5x11") sized copy. Unlike other versions of this book for sale (check their feedback), this book is properly formatted with text large enough to actually read! Review: Great book for teaching and reference - Not much to say, it has everything you need for combat and weapons tactics as well as opords, great to have on hand. Review: Ranger Approved - My boyfriend was in RIP 25 years ago - for his 49th birthday he wanted to reread the Ranger Handbook. He said it is almost exactly the same as the edition issued by the Army, just larger than the pocket size they gave him for the field. He loved the trip down memory lane, sharing some of the helpful information with the kids, and retelling old stories from his youth.

Worth the buy
It’s a lot more readable than the compact versions. Keep it on your study desk but also don’t let the size dissuade you from sticking this in your ruck sack. Only cons is that it doesn’t seem to have all the material from the smaller compact ranger handbooks, but I still need to go through it some more. Other con is that it might not fit in a typical ziplock bag of you’re going to be in the rain. Just get this and a smaller version honestly. Still 5/5 and would recommend to anybody who is in the ARMY or ROTC.

There is an updated version
I don't know how much has changed since this version was published - but there is a newer version. We got the new version also. Besides that, the book is bound well and is a nice book - just wish I would have known about the updated version. **Also important to note, when I requested a return, my purchase price was refunded almost immediately. Seller is top notch.

...causing flashbacks to Benning
Great info to review. I only wish it was more of a "pocket book". This book is full size. Maybe the format has been changed since my time in the Army. I don't recall the book being this big. Outstanding otherwise.

I wouldn’t call it a hand book
It’s pretty good with ranger tactics and information but why the size? Most of the information like with mountaineering is pretty vague and any knots show aren’t detailed enough to learn.

Table Sized Not Pocket Sized
I love the easy read and large diagrams of this oversized version. Makes studying the material much easier than from a pocket sized book.
