Great book. Love it.

This book pulls a lot of info together for those of us who like to shoot big bore handguns, mostly revolvers.

Excellent

I am glad to have this book. It is wonderful addition to my collection of firearms books. Two things keep it from being great, in my opinion.First, the books seems to be more a patched together collection of essays and stories than a real book. Certain incidences are repeated for instance, and pictures are used more than once in spite of the author's contention that there were too many to choose from. Ultimately the book lacks that consistancy and cohesiveness that a "written from scratch" book would have.Second, the author likes to write about himself almost as much as he does his subject. This is easy to take in small doses, like a magazine article, but in a book it becomes bothersome after a while. The author is certainly knowledgable, but I bought the book to learn more about the subject material, not the author. All in all it's a very good read that could have been better.

Simply put a must have book for anyone interested in Big Bore Handguns. Well written by a extremely knowledgeable author with over 50 years of shooting.
