Black Powder Hobby Gunsmithing

Rating:
Summary: OK book but not enough detail on some projects
Review: The author covers all the important steps and gives a few tips. The problem is the instructions that come with gun kits has better detail.

Rating:
Summary: Super reference for building and tuning black power guns.
Review: This book is a complete step by step reference for building, tuning, and repairing black powder rifles, pistols, and revolvers. The section on tuning cap and ball revolvers immediately paid for my book. It also has a great historical introduction on the frontier gunsmith, with sections on tools and safety.
