The Gun Digest Buyers' Guide to Guns. Ken Ramage

       Welcome to the Gun Digest® Buyer’s Guide to Guns

      This guide is a comprehensive look at new guns out on the market followed by listings of used guns, and their values. The listings here cover the entire modern era, from 1900 to present.

      To make things easy for you and your research, we’ve broken this book down into segments. The first section is listings for new guns and the second section of this book is filled with information on pre-owned firearms. Each of these sections is further broken down into rifles, handguns, and shotguns, each notated on the side of the page.

      The first section covers the new firearms market. What you’ll see are all of the manufacturer’s offerings broken down by rifle, handgun and shotguns and organized alphabetically. For your reference, we have included as many pictures as space allows to give a solid visual representation of the guns. You’ll find each caliber currently offered for the particular model. To further your research, we have included the dimensions including the weight and the barrel length. The prices listed for the new guns are the suggested manufacturer’s retail pricing, but check with your firearms retailer for the actual price.

      For the section on used firearms, we used the same format of listing the guns by rifle, handgun and shotgun, all arranged alphabetically. To start the section on used guns, we provide a basic guide for buying a used gun. You’ll find some advice and tips on things to look for so that your purchase is an enjoyable one. The listings show features of each gun with a description of what to look for, and an authoritative pricing guide based off of condition and availability.

      For many gun owners the story is the same - so many guns to choose from, and so little time. To get the full picture of the gun market, this guide will help you make the most of research time, without loosing any reliability. This book from Gun Digest^®, the most trusted name in guns, is the latest contribution to the nationwide marketplace for buyers and sellers of new and used firearms. Good shopping and good shooting.
