Any good books on Sauer guns, specifically pre war shotguns?

Yeah, Cate's text if you don't have it. Dietrich Apel's reference library was just dumped on Ebay.

If Dietrich's reference library was dumped on Ebay, that's a shame. Mike

I talked with Tom Devers this am at the Ohio Gun Collectors show and ask what publications might be coming in the near future. He said a booklet about Sauer Guns. It will not be a book, but will be like # 46 Prussian Charles Daily Imports and # 43 Drillings. I wish it was ready now! Jim

Can't find that Sauer book by Cate anywhere. One on pistols by him but not pre 1945 history of sporting rifles and guns. Darn it. Will have to keep my eye out.

There's a copy on the US version of the bay, but aren't they optimistic about the asking price. I'm pretty sure that book dealer has their own website where someone might check. There's also a 'German hunting guns of the golden era' book that might help, but it isn't a Sauer exclusive book. Best of luck tracking down a copy.

Craig, excuse me for being inept, but when I search eBay, I only get the pistol book coming up. Nothing else. I have also tried Amazon and AbesBooks.....no luck with either.
I was taken back a bit by the asking price of the pistol book.....I typically am not in the "collector" book market....I'm just after a reference book. However it may be that the book I am after is a bit of both.
Raimey, is there a way to search for Dietrich's books without knowing titles or authors? One never knows if there is something interesting until you see it.
