Product Description

Product Description
Author Tom Turpin - who has been writing about firearms and engraving for three decades - gives us a welcome overview of the engraver's world, including a discussion of techniques and styles. As you will soon learn, there are subtle nuances to every engraving style, and every engraved firearm takes on its own unique character. The other part of the story is the engravers themselves. Learn how the masters discovered their calling and how they honed their craft. Their story, and the story of their art, is a compelling one. More than 200 full-colour photos make every page a treat for the eye. An up-to-date 'Engravers Directory' provides the name and address of every artist featured in the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than Mr. Turpins first book., 4 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I thought Tom Turpins first book "Modern Custom Guns" was fabulous. Now he has outdone himself once again. "Custom Firearms Engraving" was every bit as good, if not better than Turpin's previous book. At last we have an author who details the work and art which is gun engraving.The photo's are unsurpassed!
