    Item as described and seller answered all my questions, making me feel confident in this purchase. Exquisite care taken in packaging. Seller offered companion item, which I accepted, and shipped them promptly together. There was no void space in box which can lead to crushing when stacked during the shipping process. That did not happen. Box was pristine! I cannot wait to see my daughter’s face when she opens this on Christmas Day!  Thank you!!!

    This seller couldn't have been better! She answered my questions promptly, sent me photos I requested and when the book arrived, on time, not only was it in excellent condition, but she had packaged it better than any item I can ever remember receiving in my many years of purchasing on Ebay! She also worked with me wonderfully on the price of the book that I purchased and there is not enough good that I can say about this seller! Thank you and please feel totally positive about any purchase! :-)

    This OOP book was as described in the listing and was in excellent condition given its age and was a good price compared to other listings. It was dispatched promptly and arrived ahead of the estimated delivery date. It was very well packaged and couldn’t get much better protection. It was the first time that I’ve used this seller and would definitely purchase from them again.

    The Ruger story is great! The pictures detailed information are a bonus

    A must for anyone who loves Ruger firearms. You get first rate pictures of all of the Ruger models along with serial numbers and production years. That alone let was invaluable to me in order to accurately identify my firearms and when they were made along with factory markings and variations clearly identified.

    Wonderful book on Ruger and His Guns

    A fantastic book on Ruger and his guns. Nicely illustrated on good quality paper. If you love Ruger guns and history do yourself a favor and add it to your library. There are still a few copies left that have not sold yet. The author RL Wilson is a top-notch writer. He has written many gun books over the years and is a walking encyclopedia of gun information.

    A great book

    It is a book I have wanted for some time. This is a very interesting history and I have enjoyed learning more facts about a man and the tools that he produced. A good read and a great bargain at any price.

    Great man that designed, built., and sold great firearms.

    This is a complete history of the person behind a great company and the products he came up with. He is gone but this is his legacy. Anyone that owns a Ruger firearm should own or at least read this book.
