5.0 out of 5 stars one of the best books on this subject
I agree with other reviews that this book is a bit outdated looking at subjects like modern semi- and full-automatics.

I have a lot of books on this subjects and this one one of the very best on my shelf. Absolutely advisable!

2.0 out of 5 stars Basic information a bit dated
A lot of information on 1917 enfield. This book has been around a while the first printing was in the 60s. There has been some up dating but it needs a major over haul. All of the pictures are from the 50s and 60s of shops that are not there anymore and of people that have long sense died. Of course some of the basics don't change if you are looking for information on...

One of America's best gunsmiths, Mr Dunlap covers trouble shooting and repairs for many firearms as well as custom building. This book is a wealth of technical information. I thoroughly enjoy his witty prowse and common sense approach.

This review is from: Gunsmithing (Hardcover)
My Dad and I shot with Roy in my preteen years. I was impressed with him as a shooter then, and as a gunsmith now. Someone mentioned "out of date" photos and dead authors. This issues are NOT relevant, as the knowledge encompassed in the book are not dependent on photos......

This book is a necessity in the library of any good riflesmith.
