Ich schrieb vor einigen Wochen, dass das Glock-Buch von Boatman("Living with Glocks"), der neue Standard in Sachen Glock-Literatur ist. Das ist jetzt nicht mehr so. Der Gun-Digest hat, wie schon bei dem Buch "Combat-Handgunnery" (von M.Ayoob), neue Maßstäbe gesetzt. Das Buch ist in übersichtliche Kapitel eingeteilt, hat unglaublich viele spitzenmäßige Fotos und ist prall voll mit Informationen.
Kleiner Wehrmutstropfen: Der etwas weiche Einband, für den Preis hätte es auch Hardcover sein können.
Ansonsten Spitze und sein Geld wert !! Viel Spaß beim Lesen

Informative but lacking
27. September 2005
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I made the mistake of actually reading the book, rather than skim it or use if for reference. Mr Sweeney is an accomplished gunsmith with years of experience with the 1911 and the Glock. Although he provides a lot of good information on the Glock, it becomes obvious that he truly admires the 1911. Having another, commonly used firearm to use as a reference for comparison is a good thing. But there are many times that the 1911 comes up without benefit to the topic.
The Glock information he provides is great, albeit limited in scope; I learned a lot about magazines, other Glock models, and a holster I'd never heard of; I'm glad I have the book on my shelf for reference. Probably the most practical thing I learned is that all Glock mags of the same caliber will fit and function in other Glocks of the same caliber; consequently it makes good sense to carry a 15 round clip (from a Glock 22) to put in your concealed Glock 27 after the first 10 rounds are gone. Makes more sense than investing in a bunch of mag extensions that yield fewer total rounds.
But the book has some major drawbacks, too. At one point we are led to believe that he will cover trigger pull adjustment in another section, but this is never addressed. The writing is OK, but the editor should find a new line of work. There are contradictions, circular writing, and other mistakes that a good editor would have picked out; it was difficult to read at times. Probably the worst two issues are that it desperately needs to be updated (lots of talk about the old 1994 gun restrictions, copyright 1993) and there is no index. Tough to be a reference book without one.
I haven't read any competing books on the subject, but I can compare it with quality books written on singular subjects. That's how I formulated my rating.

Author should stick to writing about the 1911
27. November 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
My review on this one is going to be a bit more critical than most. This is probably one of the worst books on Glock pistols that I have read to date. The author is constantly comparing Glocks to 1911's, and other types of pistols. The book is also loaded with plenty of non-Glock images. Mr. Sweeney, I bought this book because I like the Glock, not because I wanted to see plenty of photos of 1911's... ad nauseam. Perhaps Mr. Sweeney should stick to books writing books like his "Gun Digest Book of the 1911", as he has done Glock more than a bit of injustice.
You know, I recently purchased Massad Ayoob's excellent book "The Gun Digest Book of Sig-Sauer". Mr. Sweeney, please take note... Massad's book on the Sig is FILLED with useful information and photos related to his book's title... SIG-SAUER PISTOLS!
Sorry, but I must recommend a pass on Sweeney's "sort of Glock" book!

Good Glocking Information, but....
8. September 2003
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This book has a TON of information about the Glock pistols. My only complaint is the author's continuous reference to 1911 pistols. He is an admitted fan who dwells way too much on the 1911 and is continuously comparing it to the Glock. This book would have been better written by someone with a more neutral view. Granted, the author is not continually bashing Glocks (he actually speaks highly of them), but I didn't buy it to read about 1911's.
If you're new to Glocks, as I am, I would still recommend this book to you. As I said, TONS of useful info ...you just need to wade through the 1911 talk to get to it.
