Go to Mike Stegan Sales to buy classic gunbooks!
I have read and researched the material in all these books and can highly recommend them. To use this list print out this page and take it to the used bookstore or gunshow with you. Generally I pay up to five dollars for the softcover titles and ten to fifty dollars for the hardcovers. Also check with Wolfe Publishing or Mike Stegan Sales for reprints of many of these titles.
