Grey boards, spine titled in silver-gilt. Slight corner bumps but very good in dust-wrapper. "All of us who like to examine, handle, and hunt with fine double shotguns like to think we know something about these objects of our admiration and desire. Yet reading even the first few chapters of Shotgun Technicana will open a world that most of us only suspected lay beneath the fine checkering or the multihued case-hardening. Here, longtime friends and colleagues Michael McIntosh and David Trevallion, two of the nation's foremost experts on shotguns, have gathered, sorted, and refined five years of their acclaimed columns from Shooting Sportsman magazine. They have included additional photographs, some new text, and updated diagrams. Starting with a section on locks and actions and moving down to such crucial minutiae as spring fabrication and selection, the authors explain with extraordinary clarity and in great detail just how a side-by-side works, how today's designs evolved, and how both modifications and repairs should be handled."

Part Two: Stocks - A matter of proportion; Give us a break; Losing your grip; The butt transplant; A leather-covered butt. Part Three: Barrels - Unraveling rivelling; Forcing cones; Dent-al work.
