 The Standard for ALL gun books! September 24, 2007

There is no book like Gun Digest. It has the up-to-date info thatt other books lack. I enjoy the artcles as I think they best speak to me as a firearms enthusiast. You don't get to 62 editions without being the best!

The articles are very interesting. The specs on the firearms are minimal and incomplete at best. All of the currently available firearms are not listed or pictured. Still, it is the first book I grab when considering the purchase of a new firearm. A very handy, albeit incomplete reference book. Probably buying one every other year would be an economical alternative. Various gun magazines maintain the leading edge on what is new and hot.

Handgus 2007

What can I say?
They don't make them like they used to.
This is not your father's gun digest.
It has been a long time since I bought a Gun Digest but I am about to retire and I want to revive my interest in shooting spoorts. My primary interest is target shooting with handguns.
I expected to catch up on all the new stuff and read dozens of interesting articles and see all the new models and perhaps some fondly remembered old ones.
Well, they don't make them like they used to.
I was severely disappointed. Only 17 articles total. Many of them historical. The ones that are not historical tend to have long, boring, historical introductions.
The Photography is absolutely beautiful. If you are interested in beautiful pictures of beautiful guns, buy the Gun Digest. If you are looking for information about guns, shooting, or hunting, stick to your regular magaziine subscriptions.
If you are interested in handguns, Handguns 2007 is worth the money but just barely. It does not have the slick paper photography but it does have 21 articles. Still a lot of boring historical stuff about how one company morphed into another 75 years ago but a decent amount of real information.
The catalog portion is a disappointment, it is neither organized or comlete. There are photos of guns with no descriptions and descriptions of guns with no photos. There are manufacturers who are not represented at all.
Summary:
If you are interested in handguns, buy Handguns 2007 only.
If you are interested in beautiful pictures of guns, buy the Gun Digest 2007.
If you haven't seen one on quite a while be prepared for a disapointment.
