7 Bish, Tommy L. , edited by Jack Lewis Home Gunsmithing Digest.
Northfield, Il, Gun Digest Publishing Company 1970 0695801317 / 9780695801311 Softcover Very Good with no dust jacket 
320 pages, well illustrated, pictorial wrappers, very good, 8 by 11 inches. : 45 chapters filled with choice morsels for the home gunsmith -- a must for gun owners interested in maintaining, repairing and reworking their firearms." From the preface: "Tommy Bish is more than just another firearms enthusiast. Guns of one kind or another have made up most of his life from the days in the mid-Thirties, when he was a machine gunner with the Marines in China. He was an Air Force armorer and aerial gunner in World War II and, between, a gunsmith, saddlemaker and motion picture stuntman. But perhaps most important of all, at least for the readers of this book, is the fact that Bish is a hunter; he has been a hunter all of his adult life and the practical knowledge he has gained in the field, looking through the sights of a rifle, has been put to equally practical use in planning this volume. In short, Bish has set out to crate a book of practical gunsmithing for the gunowner. "; 320 pages
