-Ragnar Benson / Paperback 160 pages / Published January 2002
There may come a time when government restrictions severely limit not only access to firearms but the tools and means to
repair and maintain them, or you may someday find yourself in the boondocks with a busted weapon. That's where the
guerrilla gunsmith comes in. The author has had experience fixing "junk" guns in some tough places around the world, and
here he shares some innovative ways to patch up, cobble together and otherwise make operational everything from antique
rifles still found in remote war zones to modern firearms suffering from appalling abuse.
Covers instructions on how to employ last-resort but effective techniques to remove hopelessly stuck rounds and other
barrel obstructions, straighten bent barrels, replace lost parts, smooth out dented magazines, make repairs to some
pretty hopeless stocks, scrounge up workable ammo and more. These are last-ditch, do-it-yourself methods, but they may
be all you'll have to fall back on deep in the bush or with your back to the wall, when the only things between you and
the enemy are a rifle and the know-how to make it work.
