Flayderman's Guide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I am an ardent collector of antique firearms. Flayderman's is an absolutely essential resource with detailed information about practically every firearm ever produced in early America. There simply is nothing comparable.

One may disagree with some of the prices given but if a novice collector bought only one book, this should be it for the wealth of information found within its almost 700 pages of photos and text. Whether your area of interest is Civil War arms, Indian guns, air and spring guns, or even whaling guns you'll find this book helpful. My only criticism is the arrangement of the index and that was the responsibililty of the publisher.
Still the best
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I bought the first Flayderman's when it came out as I was deeply into muzzleloading antiques. This book continues the excellence and timeliness of the information. Like any such book the prices are approximate and do not reflect individual tastes or objectives. The prices are, however, the most uniform reference you can find It is, without question, still the best reference book available for American arms in the period covered.

I absolutely agree with one of the testimonials on the back cover of the book that ...if I had to settle for only one book in my entire arms library it would unquestionably be FLAYDERMAN'S GUIDE. One cannot collect Antique American arms without this book. It truly is indispensible and deserves what other collectors have said about it being "The Bible". 7 editions are living proof.
For antique firearm values, this is it.

This is the authoritative book on antique firearm values. It has lots of excellent information on gun collecting in the opening chapters. The following chapters on values are well organized and illustrated. There are other similar books on the market, but I feel this one is the best .
