Book Reviews of Boston's Gun Bible
Book Review: Quite Possibly the Best Gun Book Ever Written. But...
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is NOT intended for hunters or competitive shooters. It IS a patriot's book; heavily political (i.e. libertarian). It is designed to be a militia man's gun reference book.
Aside from the two aforementioned subjects, the only other topics this book does not adequately cover are shotguns and (for some) pistols. It covers nearly everything else you can imagine, however: which states are gun friendly, why most gun laws are ineffective, which guns are good purchases, how to reload ammo and zero your sights, how to act at gun shows, etc. In addition, there is A LOT of excellent practical advice in this book, some of which very well may change your life. I think it's just about impossible to express how amazing this book is.
That said, the book is not without flaw. Aside from the copious typos, the author is clearly a nutbag with some paranoia issues. One can tell he's obviously an older guy, somewhat of an eccentric, with a lot of money (a lawyer maybe?) with VERY strong, rigid opinions. He obviously loves guns and expects his readers to love them as much as he does. All of this should be kept in mind when reading.
That's partly because some of his advice is absolute garbage. He seriously recommends people buy a $2000+ battle rifle for their first gun instead of the FAR more reasonable suggestion of a .22 rifle. He advises people to avoid using their 'gun hand' when in public in case they need to draw their carry pistol in an emergency. And his advice concerning certain gun purchases being too expensive is 'Fine, but how much is your life worth?'
As a reference book, source for (usually) good gun advice, source for political inspiration to become part of the militia, this book is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. As long as you keep in mind the obvious lifestyle biases that cloud some of the author's suggestions, you will get A LOT out of this wonderful book. We're utterly blessed to have someone as knowledgeable and wise as Boston to have written this stellar book.
