Signature Edition. 648 pages. Hardcover with a dust jacket. Huge 13" x 11" format. SIGNED BY AUTHOR lARRY VICKERS. Born in a small workshop in Hollywood, California, and rushed into service for testing and assesment during war in Vietnam, the AR-15 has proven to be the most adaptable and longest lasting of all standard U.S. service rifles. Still in use today around the world in the form of the M16, M4, and other variants, the AR-15 has defied attempts to replace it. In this first volume of Vickers Guide: Ar-15, Larry Vickers and James Rupley revisit the earliest days of the AR-15 , examining details of the rifles that influence its design and highligting its groundbreaking features. Due to the longevity of the AR-15, many details of the earliest rifles have been lost to today's firearms enthusiasts, and it is therefore with great pride that we re-introduce these rifles using state-of-the-art, high-resolution photography and insight from industry experts. Featuring over 100 rifles, the book gives the reader a once-in-a-lifetime glimpse into some of the rarest and most historically significant rifles in the AR-15 family. Commentary by co-authors Christopher Bartocci and Daniel Watters offer further insight into a wide range of subject matter. The book presents this highly curated collection of firearms in never before seen detail on larger than life, wide format, full color prints in a premium hardback form. Now out of print. Both the Book and the Dust Jacket are in Fine condition with modest use. The packaged weight of this huge volume is about 12 pounds requiring extra shipping.
