I think there have been reviews of it

Rich, look at the copyrite, you will find it was years before he wrote the articles in guns and ammo

and, at the time, it was the only book out there that had pictures of every type, so it was very valuable without having too much BS - it really is still a collectors book - with type and guess (at the time) of how many made etc. Does it have errors, sure

But its better than some of the newer books

Guns & Ammo??? I was referring to the old articles in The Gun Report...And from the issues I have it appears that his 'Lugers At Random' articles didn't appear in every issue...Making it difficult to pin down a 3 or 4 part article to a sequential series of magazine dates...

I'm sure it has been reviewed here, although I did a Search for a review and nothing came up, and it's a collectors' treasure of pictures and descriptions, but it's just not the articles from which it got its name...

Agreed. It is a treasure.
