Best Guide to Antique Firearms

Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

The definitive guide for all antique firearms . An essential 'must have' while perusing auctions, and the last edition ( 9th) incorporates the best of all prior editions while correcting a lot of prior misconceptions. The used copy I acquired from an Amazon reseller was in better condition than described , better priced than other online available resources. and shipping was lightening fast.

Flayderman's Guide got me started....

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2015

Verified Purchase

Flayderman's Guide was recommended to me as a means to identify and establish a starting current value for a pair of Allen and Thurber Pepperbox Pistols, and it contained the variations as well as the caution needed in determining values in the wide variety of combinations these firearms seem to have been manufactured in. I found it very accurate when presenting them into a regional market auction environment. It has also been very helpful in some of our other arcane long guns.

A very well known source of information. My only negative is that this issue was copyrighted in 2007; antique gun values have changed significantly since then for many pieces, but not the technical information. To me, the book is well worth what I paid for it, hope an updated version comes out soon.

It was delivered early ❤️ In new condition!
It is the last Flayderman’s 9th edition as sadly, Mr. Flayderman has passed away.

Yes, it's out of date so the prices are wrong.
However, his coverage of other topics is still timely and outstanding.

Not only does he give you a good review and value but has a lot of information on each firearm. This book is well worth the price.

Superior book. When is the next edition comng out? If you are interested in antique American guns, buy this reference. Information is excellent. The prices may have changed a bit since the last publication and I wish they would update it, however, this is still the best book around. Remember however, American gun antiques only. No foreign or new gun prices are listed in here.

Been collecting antique firearms for 45 years. Norm Flayderman's book is THE bible of antique gun collecting, and I wouldn't be without it.

The new 2007 9th edition has great color plates, newly identified and expanded info on many guns.[MAKE SURE YOURE BUYING THE 9TH / LATEST EDITION]. The updated values are invaluable. I just wish he wouldn't wait so long between editions (this edition is like 4 years over due.).

If you collect, sell/trade, or just have an interest in American antique guns, this is THE book to have.

Excellent.
