5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference, January 10, 2001

HARJOT BRAR (CHANDIGARH, INDIA.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Rifles of the World (Paperback)

This book makes for excellent reference material for those thinking of investing in a great rifle or simply enthusiastic about the art of rifles today.Exhaustive gun list covering most commercial rifles of today and yesterday without wasting too many pages on worthless ballistic charts.Highly recommended reference for hunters,competitive shooters,collectors or simply gun enthusiasts.
