    Overall A Good BooK But Weak In Some Areas

    Overall this a good book with some good information, particularly the early chapters on tools, work space setup and the how-to’s on measuring tools. The chapters on metal work are full of good information as are the sections on stock work. Then we come to the chapters on actual firearms and we have some good information on the M1903, M1911 and M14; but most the information seems to be reprinted from the military manuals.

  • Over 50

    The author of this book died over 50 years ago so if your wanting a gunsmithing book to work on guns this is probably not what you want. Wish I had known that before purchasing
