Customer Reviews

Specialised book but, if you need it, indispensable
The Blue Book of Gun Values is useful not only for the obvious valuations but also for the general information it gives on the guns that it covers - for some reason modern blackpowder guns are omitted but the originals that the modern BP guns are often copied from are included (the modern BP guns are in a companion volume that I am having difficulty in sourcing). The book does cover handguns, rifles and shotguns but they are necessarily of US sales origin (sometimes the same gun is sold in the UK under a different name and hence can be difficult to find). The valuations are also US based but do provide a reasonable basis for UK values. I was unsure whether the book rated a four or a five star rating but leaned towards the five so that's what I opted for in the end. Now that GunMart no longer have a price listing I know of no other source of this information (other than internet searches) - someone is bound to tell me otherwise!
