4.0 out of 5 stars Easy and simple., March 5, 2003

By A Customer

Hayduke rides again!
The Edward Abbey frictional character has a number of books under this guise, This is one of those little gems of his. However, all the plans are simplistic. And most are for the .22 rifle or pistol. I wanted to see plans with washers and welding, but alas, they where not here. If you sat down and wrote 5 ways to suppress the sound of a gun, it would be in this small book.

A fun book to read, and educational. Please do remember that even the assembly of the parts in preparation to build a suppressor is a federal offense, don't do it without ATF permission (and paying the...tax of course!).

1.0 out of 5 stars A complete waste of your time and money, September 28, 2007

By	Alexander Z. Hughes - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It's hard to imagine how this book got in to print: poorly written, poorly researched, poorly presented. It fails to provide any insight in to the principles behind suppressor design and manufacture, contains no information about gunsmith practices for mounting a silencer, and has just enough print to escape classification as a picture book.

Save your money and time. Buy anything but a Hayduke book.
