The Shooter's Guide to the 1911 Pattern Pistol
by Stephen A. Camp
The Shooter's Guide to the 1911 Pattern
Pistol
has been
completed and is ready for sale. This book is not a primer for gunsmiths,
nor does it cover race guns or double stacks. The book focuses heavily on
the .45 ACP 1911 in the usual 5" versions, but does discuss
Commander-style versions, compacts, and long slides.
Because of the input I received, 9mm, .38 Super, and 10mm 1911's are included and evaluated.
This book is intended to show the new owner or prospective owner of the 1911 what he might expect from the various 1911's on today's market. Everything from ammunition selection, springs, maintenance, to barrels and bushings is discussed. Comments are made on virtually each component to this classic design. Comments and opinions are included from various gunsmiths and shooters of the 1911.
Range evaluations are provided for numerous makes and models of this timeless pistol.
It was necessary to go to 10-point font and narrow the margins to be able to keep the book within page limitations and trust me, it is full! The actual word count is nearly 3 times that of the original version of The Shooter's Guide to the Browning Hi Power.
The format is 8 1/2 x 11" spiral-bound with 164 pages in 10-point font. It IS NOT a hard cover book.
The Shooter's Guide to the 1911 Pattern Pistol is easy to understand and written as one shooter would talk with another.
Price: $24.95 + $5 S&H
