3.0 out of 5 stars
Sometimes, bigger is not always better...,
By A Customer
This review is from: 1998 Standard Catalog of Firearms: The Collector's Price & Reference Guide (8th ed) (Paperback)
A true buyers guide should include a thorough look at each model of various firearms made by various manufacturers. All variations must be noted and all differences/similarities should be spelled out for the readers. Every calibre of every type; the uniqueness of a particular make (the hardness of the frame, the type of slide rails that were developed and when; etc,etc,etc); a glossary for novices and professionals alike (eg, what does parabellum mean?) and the list goes on. All commentaries on manufacturer's and their products histories were too brief and will disappoint everyone except for the resellers and novices. If you don't care about pricing and the historical values of a particular piece, take a look at a publication like GUN DIGEST. DO not make the mistake of thinking this is a true reference however. This is strictly a pricing catalog and nothing more.
