Gunsmithing Student Handbook Series
As a Gunsmithing instructor Zeglin found a lack of focused teaching material on the subject of gunsmithing. Each book in this series is focused on one narrow subject in gunsmithing. Written with an audience in mind who want to know every detail of the how and why in gunsmithing. These books are ideal for instructing classes on the subject of gunsmithing.
Each book in the series provides a highly detailed and technical explanation of the subject at hand in a way that any gun lover will be able to understand, whether professional or hobbyist. “Chambering Rifles for Accuracy” is the third title in the series. Two titles were released in 2017: “Chambering for Ackley Cartridges” and “Understanding Headspace for Firearms”. These titles dovetail nicely with this new book as the subjects are all clearly connected.
Installation of rifle barrels is a subject that is often seen as mysterious to the gunsmithing customer. Gritters and Zeglin explain every facet of the subject in a complete and technical way that allows any reader to fully grasp the intent and meaning. Clear photos and diagrams aid in the explanation of complicated processes.
