 Practical book with a good overview January 7, 2004
12 out of 16 found this review helpful
This is a very practical book with several subjects on gunsmithing pistols and revolvers. It is part of a series of 3 books on the gunsmithing subject from patrick sweeney. I suggest you get them all. The 11-9 attacks have left a great impact on information available on the internet, and soon they will be going for the books so get them now you still can.
Very practical! July 1, 2001

With no experience, orther than mechanical competence and some machine shop knowledge (which is not required), this book took me from zero experience, to purchasing $100 of tools, to a successful trigger job on a new revolver, with notably happy results. I am eager to try more projects because of this book.
Excellent book April 16, 2001

I was lead to the book by a review at realguns website. I am very pleased with the bok. I used to glass bed an action for the first time. I have barreles many actions, and I learned more about that. The accuracy improvements were good too.
Superb overview of the topic! March 15, 1999

I found this book in the library, and have decided to purchase it. Sweeney goes into sufficient detail to enable the reader to diagnose handgun problems and speak intelligently to a gunsmith about them. Step-by-step instructions are presented for doing your own work - or for deciding that you want a professional to do it. He also discusses what work is best left to professionals, customizing, enhancements, etc. Great book for any pistol owner!
Informative. Easy-to-read. Realistic projects for anyone. June 18, 1998

Patrick Sweeney has given pistol and revolver owners everywhere the information they need to not only work on their own handguns if they choose, but readers will also understand the options available if they decide to use the services of a gunsmith. Pistol shooters at all levels of the sport should read this book to get a complete underdstanding of the mechanical workings, limitations and possible refinements of their handguns. It should be in every shooter's library.
