A historical landmark title on the practice of gunsmithing.
Widely regarded as one of the foremost bibles of gunsmithing of its
time, Vickery's "Advanced Gunsmithing" is still relevant to this
day. With in-depth explanations on different gunsmithing tools, gun
parts, and methods, this technical resource complements other
modern titles in the contemporary gunsmithing book market.
Vickery's passion for tools, and the firearms he could manipulate
with them, gives this book its spirit of resourcefulness and
experimentation. Different aspects of gunsmithing are highlighted
in the book's twenty chapters, such as barreling, chambering,
action, and other kinds of metal-working. Vickery also attempts to
reduce the gunsmither's reliance on hard-to-find tools, and often
describes alternate methods where possible. The informational text
is supplemented by detailed illustrations, which are in turn
accompanied by live photographs so that the reader can accurately
compare his or her work to the text's instruction.
Vickery's clear and precise instruction covers gunsmithing
essentials and techniques for both the amateur and professional
smith. The book's historical significance and previous rare
editions make it a valuable collector's item for any firearm
enthusiast. Classic and practical, "Advanced Gunsmithing" is a
noteworthy companion to the gunsmither's workbench.
In-So-Far As The Necessary Metal Work With Hand And Machine Tools
Is Concerned. With Chapters On The Boring, Rifling And Chambering
Of Barrels. For Amateur And Professional Gunsmiths.
