This is a clear and simple guide to building a semi- or full-auto pistol or a single-shot, falling-block handgun from common materials in the privacy of your home workshop. In addition to offering many alternative workshop gunsmithing tips, the author explains how each part and section of the gun is made and discusses thoroughly the subjects of heat-treatment and bluing.

Another great work by bill holmes. Although the designs look raw compared to guns in the commercial places its important to remember the art behind the works of Bill Holmes. Defense and Resistance is a reaccuring theme in Bills Books. This to me says that its not about looks but great function and that is what makes Bills books so great. He gives ideas on 3 diffrent calibers and two designs. Also gives you an idea on a quick way to chamber those 3 calibers in a quick way. Like all of Bills work he gives you a great idea and allows you to finish the work.

Great information considering when it was published2008/11/28

Considering this was first Published in 1979 I believe this to be a great book on the subject. The Drawing are not CAD drawings as this was before most people had computers or even the CAD software (which was very hard to find during that time). It shows you the steps needed from making the mag to the bluing of the finished gun.
This is not a book for the person that thinks they can build a handgun over night to cause mayhem. It is for the person that has basic crafting skills with power tools. I highly recommend any book by Bill Holmes or P. A. Luty (he has several PDF's on his website). Having the knowledge to construct a weapon will come in handy down the road as Governments seek to remove everyone's rights to bear arms (US Constitution 2nd Amendment), not only in Europe but now in the America's too.

I read this book 2 times, and then from the back once because the gun you end up buy trying to make is in the last two pages.There is also no mag in this book ,as long as you have access to the one in the book you should have a good chance at building one.
