1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money, October 13, 2008

By	J. Kindred (MS) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently purchased this book and it did not take long to realize I had wasted my money. This book is so outdated that much of the information does not apply. If you have never picked up an AR15 this book may be of some use to you but your money could be better spent on many of the more current books on this subject.

3.0 out of 5 stars What 3rd Edition?!, August 3, 2008

By	European History Guy (Arcata, CA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

This book is largely obsolete, because it was originally written while the so-called Assault Weapons Ban was in effect, and it doesn't take into account everything that's happened since the AWD sunsetted. Instead of actually revising the text, there are addenda for the 2nd and 3rd editions.
This is handy to have around as a printed reference, but anybody looking for an introduction to the AR-15 would be better off getting the U.S. Army manaul (which this book largely reproduces) and reading up at [...].

4.0 out of 5 stars AR-15 Guide, October 19, 2007

By	Leonard J. Kulik (Detroit) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have found this book a very useful tool on the ins and outs of the AR-15 rifle. Very comprehensive, and very detailed as to assembly and disassembly. Includes helpful hints on shooting the AR-15 for fun or competition.
