5.0 out of 5 stars Gun Digest Annual, September 17, 2003
The gun digest has been the premier firearms publication since 1944. No other annual has covered the field consistantly for this amount of time. There are many interesting articles from many contributing authors over its 60+ year span that are timeless in their relevance. Buy and collect gun digests where you can find them and you will have a wealth of information at your fingertips. Especially the gun digest treasuries editions. Those are truly gold. They contain, besides reprints of the best articles, a thoroughly indexed cross reference by author or subject of all the articles published in the various publications of the gun digest up to the date of publication of the treasury edition. The last treasury, the 7th was from 45 years of gun digest. I'm hopeful that the current owners, Krause books will come out with a new treasury edition soon. If you view the gun digest as a cumulative work or as a single standalone issue, you can truly appreciate its command of the firearms and shooting dicipline fields. The 2004 edition continues this fine tradition.

2.0 out of 5 stars Change the title to Local Greatest Gun Book, December 21, 2003
By C.E.J. van den Berg (Netherlands, Europe) - See all my reviews
One of the world's greatest handguns is the Wildey, it isn't even mentioned in the handgun section, in the WEB directory Wildey is mentioned as Widley !! It's a same.
Another well known handgun and beatifully designed is the Tanfoglio (www.tanfoglio.it), it is only mentioned once in the Manufactorer's Directory.
In the rifles section there's no mention about the Accuracy Precision Rifles (one of the best sniper rifles in the world).
The front page is different on the one I got at home and the one shown on Amazon.com Why is that?
The front page also says 'Complete Illustrated...' well it isn't complete at all

1.0 out of 5 stars Gun Digest 2002 Nonsense, January 1, 2002
By A Customer
The current edition of Gun Digest continues with the same old listings of firearms in the back pages as well as the same pictures. It's a copy of the previous Gun Digest with some minor updates in the catelog pages of firearms and ammunition ballistics, as well as accessories. It's not worth buying if you have last years gun digest. There are perhaps two or three interesting articles but a lot of them are out in left field, wierd, or of the who cares variety. I got swindled even at Amazons cut rate price. Last time I buy one of these "blivets" without a personal perusal.

The tag line for the Gun Digest is "Essential Information for Shooters, Collectors and Students of the Gun" and that pretty well sums it up. Read more
