Brownells Gunsmith Kinks Volume III Book

Gunsmith Kinks III continues the esteemed legacy of its predecessors, Gunsmith Kinks and Gunsmith Kinks II, by offering an unparalleled collection of practical knowledge designed to enhance your gunsmithing experience. This volume compiles a decade's worth of insights, solutions, jigs, fixtures, shop suggestions, cartoons and jokes from the Newsletter, along with previously unpublished content due to length constraints. Each entry is developed in the workshop and articulated by the craftsmen who executed the work. The collective wisdom presented in Gunsmith Kinks III is invaluable, as no single individual could amass such a comprehensive array of expertise. This edition provides detailed instructions on various topics, including glass bedding synthetic stocks, proper pillar bedding techniques, cleaning oil-soaked stocks, installing pre-threaded, short-chambered barrels and removing frozen choke tubes. It also features a specification and hole-spacing chart for Weaver scope mount bases, 80 pages dedicated to bluing, plating and parkerizing and over 400 cross-referenced listings of private label guns to their original manufacturers. Additionally, there are more than 50 pages of innovative, time-saving shop and bench ideas, ranging from constructing cleaning systems and sandblast cabinets to removing rusty recoil pad screws and crafting clever jigs and fixtures. The book contains 260 detailed photographs and drawings across 512 pages, with 778 distinct subject headings. It is presented in a deluxe, heavy-duty hardcover with a sewn binding and includes a 3,600-entry index, cross-referenced with the original Gunsmith Kinks and Gunsmith Kinks II. Furthermore, it features all the jokes that have made the Newsletter renowned.
