Suppressors: RECOIL Magazine's Complete Guide to Buying, Maintaining, and Shooting with a Silencer

great book

Decent education on suppressors. Explains how they work and covers some prominent brands but not all.Actual construction of the book is poor. Several pages came loose from binding.Best part was the history of silencers.

More of a sales catalog either lots of product reviews. However, if you’re looking for in-depth information on “FORM & FUNCTION, this publication only touches the surface.

RECOIL is one of the few print magazines I still get, mainly because of their honest, unbiased reviews and interesting articles.I was hoping for up to date, general purpose content, and there is some of that. But mostly this book is just reprints of old reviews, some of them very old about cans that aren't even available or relevant anymore.Honestly, I can't recommend this book. I was hoping for a book that covered the history, theory and practical aspects of suppressors. Not a bunch of old, already published reviews.

New gun owner & was hoping for more organized breakdown by caliber. Seems a lot of book is just advertising for certain companies. Also, 1/3 of the book is DIY building of a rifle. That has nothing to do with what they advertise as “Complete Guide to Buying,Maintaining & Shooting with a silencer”.
