Review: Excellent reference for rookies and experienced alike - Patrick Sweeney has an easy-reading style that transfers tons of knowledge before the reader even realizes it. He explains things in detail that need explaining, but does so in a way that most anyone can understand. This book goes far beyond simply assembling parts into a rifle, or changing sights, etc. This book has paid for itself over and over, by helping me to avoid bad caliber choices, poor quality magazines, and improving my maintenance and cleaning routine. This is one book I will keep on my bookshelf as long as I am able to still read the words. While there is a substantial chapter on barrels, the author does not explore in great detail alternative calibers for this platform, although he does discuss the merits and shortcomings of several popular alternative calibers. If you are wanting to rebarrel or build an upper on a wildcat cartridge, or one that you cannot find already assembled, you will need additional information from another source.
Review: Good book, fast shipping. - Shipped quickly, fine condition, bright colors, informative.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nicely written.
*by J***N on May 16, 2013*

I've only had a chance to pick through a few items in this book, but what I have read is good. I would have liked more pictures to visualize better since I'm not up on all the part names, but there probably are enough pictures for most people. The reading is very comprehensive and it keeps your interest. It is worth the money to have a written reference in case you can't find a gunsmithing video that covers what you want or don't have internet access.
