Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisWork out all the details of every major design since the Mauser of 1871 with this essential volume. Author Frank de Haas analyzes 121 turnbolt actions -- how they function, takedown/assembly, strengths and weaknesses, and dimensional specs.
Definately "Should Have" for your fire arms library
Although somewhat dated, book contains valuable reference material for gun enthusiasts. The author was a recognized authority who gives clear and accurate descriptions of many bolt actions, followed by his opinions and comments. A valued addition to my reference collection.
Most descriptions have some back round history. In cases where the author has no personal experience with that particular action, he states that fact and references where he is obtaining his data.
Good reading, as well as reference materiel.
