Done! Good cause all around and I look forward to a good read. Thanks, Sal
Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.

I bought a copy of the book and received it within one week of purchase. I have skimmed through the book and it looks to me, Tony really put his heart and soul into it especially considering the limited time he had to complete it. As a shooter and only minor gun tinkerer, I am looking forward to hearing from the real gunsmith types as to their evaluation of the book and Tony's techniques because I am pretty clueless as to the mechanisms of actual high quality gunsmithing.

I purchased the e-book copy. My heart goes out to Tony's wife and girls. As a father of 6 kids, I deeply respect his concern for his family. He provided as best he could and, were I in his shoes, I, with my skills in my profession, could not have done as well as he to provide in his unfortuante abstentia. My prayers to him and I hope thefew shekels that I sent to his wife and kids will in some small measure assist them in the future.

We recieved all of our copies that were ordered for Friends Customers and a couple of people that were "Gun Snobs"....I made sure that they passed their opinions of Tonys "Efforts on to me before they blew their "Hot Air" elsewhere....I personally like Tony's book from cover to cover. He was a Craftsman, without all the "Hoopla" that we, "Apprenticed to the Grand Old Houses for all those many years of our youth" Had to endure. I sincerley hope that His wife Marie & the 2 Children, are able to continue with their lives with the Memory of Tony for years to come. David Trevallion, (Purdeys Sept 1953-April 1.1964.

I ordered the e version but had difficulty getting my kindle to download. The kindle is brand new so I suspect operator error. I went back and ordered the hard copy.

Two days ago, Tony's book was retrieved from the mail office, I read most of it in less than 48 hrs., very satisfied, (though there are some minor glitches like unfinished sentences), quite helpful for someone placed so far from established restoring centers. I have already contacted JayCee, he is eager to read it too and put that experience to good use for the benefit of the local gun community.

I ordered a copy from Lulu from a link on this site about 10/04. I recieved notification that it was shipped 10/08 but I still haven't seen it in 10 days. Has anyone else bought anything from Lulu, and what was your experience with them? I paid with Pay-Pal just on the chance of trouble so I have them and my card company for help if it isn't delivered. Lee.
