4 out of 5 stars Wide Variety   November 2, 2009
W. L. Willis (SC)
This book is typical of Gun Digest's publications -- long on variety but falls short on details. An experienced gunsmith can get more out of it than an tinkerer or amateur, since they will be familiar with a wider variety of actions and may not need explanations of exactly 'how to' do particular functions.


5 out of 5 stars Another great Wood book!   May 4, 2009
Gunner Hellstorm (USA)
I've got the whole series of these books and they are all well written, very well illustrated, and just plain useful. I like way he identifies variations of particular models where applicable.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent reference book   January 12, 2009
N. Alexander (Labrador, NL, CA)
A classic! Easy to read, easy to follow, and explains everything you need to know. Working on obtaining the whole collection.

WAS HOPING FOR MORE MODERN GUNS THAT I WORK ON, NOT GUNS THAT I WILL PROBABLY NEVER COME A CROSS, GOOD BOOK, JUST NOT WHAT I NEEDED.


4 out of 5 stars Good pictures   March 19, 2008
Mike K (Seattle, WA United States)
Of the two books on assembly/disassembly I purchased this was the more thorough. It has good pictures on tear down but is a little lacking on reassembly. I was torn between a three and four rating. This book would actually be helpfull if you had not torn down the project firearm before. So I rated it at four. A little more attention to reassembly would be beneficial for us novices and make this a really good book.
