E-Book Resources: More Gunsmithing Books

When I discussed some of the more general sources of info and put together my E-Book Resource page, I generally listed some major repositories with the warning that you would need to explore those repositories to find the books and information that might interest you. But I thought I would periodically post more specific links to a collection, library, or specific titles that would be of interest to the prepper/survivalist.

    Today's selections are as follows:

• Custom Gunsmithing for Self-Defense Firearms (epub) by Steve Sieberts;
• The Complete Guide to Gunsmithing: Gun Care and Repair (epub) by Charles Edward Chapel and Jim Casada;
• Gunsmithing Modern Firearms: A Gun Guy’s Guide to Making Good Guns Even Better (epub) by Bryce M Towsley;
• Gunsmithing the AR-15 (epub) by Patrick Sweeney; 
• Gunsmithing - The AR-15 Volume 2 (epub) by Patrick Sweeney; 
• Gunsmithing the AR-15, The Bench Manual (epub) by Patrick Sweeney;
• Gunsmithing for Professionals (epub, MOBI and others) by Richer Hammerfell; 
• The Gunsmith Handbook (epub, MOBI and others) by B. Smith;
• Practical Gunsmithing (PDF) by the editors of American Gunsmith; 
• Gun Digest Book of Shotgun Gunsmithing (PDF);
• Black Powder Hobby Gunsmithing (PDF);
• Advanced Gunsmithing (PDF) by W.F. Vickery with original illustrations by Oliver B. Hamilton;
• The Gun Digest Book of Gunsmithing Tools and Their Uses (PDF) by John E Traister; 
• The Gun Digest Book of Exploded Gun Drawings: 975 Isometric Views (PDF) by Harold Murtz.

Please note that the site at which these books are collected only allows 5 downloads within a 24 hour period. Also, for the books using epub format, you might find the following programs useful to view them on your computer or to convert to a different format: First is Calibre, which is a free-to-download e-book management program. What makes it useful is that it can read many different formats of e-books and can convert between different formats (e.g. from epub to MOBI) as long as there is no encryption, as well as allowing you to organize files into useful libraries. Second, and more basic, is SumatraPDF which also allows you to view all sorts of e-book formats but without the ability to convert a file from one format to another.
