Book excerpt: Here is an assemblage of professional ?know-how,? the likes of which has never before been made available between the covers of one book - or many books. Although highly technical in nature to the point of being the secret art of the professional gunsmithing craft, it is presented in the off-the-cuff manner of friends chewing the fat between themselves in a language anyone can understand and enjoy - and learn new and wondrous procedures in the process.The hundreds and hundreds of kinks are the result of discussions between Bob Brownell and the thousands of gunsmith friends with whom he has corresponded over a period of some 30 years. Every bit of technical information gleaned from this vast storehouse of gunsmithing know-how was squirreled away to be presented as a helping hand to the gunsmith and to those gun lovers who do their own care and repair, building and re-doing...not to mention the serious ?buff? whose thirst for knowledge in this direction is nearly insatiable. Anyone who owns a gun will find this book a delight, a revelation and a life-long friend.The 668 separate titles and their broad subject matter are completely cross-indexed by 1,268 entries. Three hundred and seventeen drawings, photographs and blueprints leave nothing to the imagination. Individual articles and kinks are in the unedited words of each writer, giving the smell, feel and atmosphere of the gunshop...even the jokes he has enjoyed over the years are included to make this truly ?his? book...and after you have read it, ?your? book as well!
