Reviews

[Ryan Ricks]

Pretty decent but some consistency issues with pictures, nomenclature, and a few snarky comments that seem inappropriate in a book of this kind.

[Steve Mitchell]

Ostensibly a recognition guide for customs, police and other security officers likely to come into contact with illicit guns in the course of their duties, to enable them to identify and make safe any weapon that comes into their hands. Interesting, if you like that sort of thing
