Good book. An excellent starting point.

[Leonardo Campos-moya · Rating 2 out of 5]

It was a pretty basic book, and I would not trust myself to do any major projects just by reading this book. I did, however, pick up a few tips for rifle maintenance and got some ideas about things I could do to customize my weapons.

This book showed me a lot on simple things about gunsmith things like how to fix a sight, or add a sight, change the butt stock, doing a effective cleaning in the gun, or how to pimp a gun.
