If you can't field strip it, you shouldn't own it.

If you cannot field strip a weapon you really have no business owning it. I bought the volume on automatic pistols and I was not disappointed. For most of my life I was a revolver man and I stayed away from automatics because I didn't understand them- and I was convinved that they were unreliable. When I bought my first Model 1911 (which has NEVER jammed on me) it didn't have a field manual, so I bought this book. It didn't take long before I was field stripping and reassembling blind-folded. I feel confident that I could do the same with any automatic even loosely based on John Browning's designs. I might have trouble with German designs like the Luger or Broom handle Mauser, but after studying this book I feel sure that I could eventually master them too.

I found this book very useful.It tells you how to strip down most popular small bore rifles ,including the Ruger 10/22.Unfortunately there is no information on modifications.An excellent buy.
has disassembly manuals of every shotgun made

This book has most, if not every disassembly instuctions for any shotgun made this century or before. I have used this manual for my Remingtons: a 1100 and Sportsman 48 which was discontined in the late 60's. This book is the only one of it's kind which has so much information on so many different models without directly writing to each different manufacturer one needs.
