ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

Great coverage but to little information
~ Written on Jun 4, 2009. 4 out of 5 users found this review helpful.

For the occasional reader or gun aficionado this book has it all; a wide range of weapons from around the world, detailed illustrations and basic data. But as a gun recognition guide it falls short of being complete in any sense.

To be really useful you'd need more info on safety features (preferably with schematics), more raw data on markings and serial numbers, photographs covering more angles, production data and manufacturing locations. And so on.

The best you'll find

This is a fully comprehensive guide for the most inspired gun freak. It has pistols, revolvers, shotguns, rifles, submachine guns, and bolt action. This book covers it all!

concise review

This little book is a terrific resource and covers a huge array of firearms. I am sure it will be of use for many years to come.
