Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas. We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry. This carefully researched revised and updated edition of The AR-15/M16 Sourcebook offers fresh insight into why the AR-15/M16 rifle remains a favorite of soldiers, law enforcement officials, civilian shooters and self-defense experts. In it, Duncan Long takes another look at the history of the black-rifle from the bureaucratic blunders and military infighting that ruined its reliability during the Vietnam War to the modifications that transformed it into a reliable weapon. He also examines the many military and custom spin offs of the firearm, including an invaluable listing of its various models, supplemented by an impressive collection of photos and illustrations. In addition, he covers grenade launchers, SAW versions, and experimental weapons systems and even gives a detailed assessment of the OICW and other firearms now being tested as replacements for the U.S. military's M16 and M4 carbine. An entire section of the book is devoted to the newest accessories for the AR-15, with a hard look at which ones will enhance its capabilities--and which could get the shooter killed. In addition to offering advice on improving an AR-15 rifle, picking the best ammunition for it, and ensuring its reliability, Long presents simple techniques for creating a one-of-a-kind exotic weapon built around this rifle through the selection of parts and accessories now on the market (and where to get them). Finally, the book provides complete instructions on how to field-strip, detail strip, troubleshoot, and assemble an AR-15. Whether you want a weapon you can rely on to get you out of a tight spot or wish to build a super accurate target version of the AR-15, this is the most complete and up-to-date resource available on what many consider to be the best rifle ever made.

As bonuses, the Guide includes a comprehensive Colt Model Number list and a compilation of trainers and shooting academies that we feel are worth your time and money. As a youth, the author marveled at the mind that could conceive such a wondrous mechanism; how could John Browning have created it without X-ray vision? It comes apart without tools, it goes together without tools, it is the lightning you hold in your fist. It has endured for a century, and if Robert Heinlein's vision is true, it will endure for centuries more. Slim, powerful, elegant of line, capable of great beauty and brutish minimalism in turn, a tabla rasa for an owner's imagination, the jumping-off point for a horde of manufacturers. In all of history, two handguns stand out as innovative, enduring, and widely emulated, and both happen to be Colts: the Model 1873 Peacemaker, and the M1911 pistol. No handguns as practical have captured the imagination as have these two American classics. Capable of great accuracy, the power and simplicity of the M1911 make it a most useful defensive tool. The M1911 Complete Owner's Guide is designed to help the reader make the most of that tool. The M1911 Complete Owner's Guide gives you a look into the history and development of the M1911, as well as giving you everything you need to know to use and maintain your M1911.
