but..........there was new stuff in the same articles. seems to me someone didn't read real thoroughly. there's some of the same pics and hunts but last i checked when dealing with the topic you will likely have some of the same hunts to some degree since there's just not enough of us out there hunting large and/or dangerous game to get after. seems to me we have a plethora of people shooting small game and does and squirrels and whatnot arguing what is best on dangerous game. it's present on every forum. i for one, love sitting down with a book about big bore revolvers and reading and reliving people's hunts and seeing their fine pistols when i can't hunt. last i checked not alot of people were even writing books on the subject and so if ya want more, support those that do and quit bitching.

seems to me even capstick revisited stories throughout his books. they're the best books written on the subject. i wouldn't say max reused anything, he revisited the subjects i.e. the 44 vs 45 colt and had new independent penetration tests and i, for one, applaud him for publishing the results despite being different than what was argued before. that's what a true researcher does. want new pics in a book, go freakin shoot something worth being in a book and submit your photos. till then quit whining.


I simply stated my opinion, being how this is a PUBLIC FORUM I was free to do so. Sorry a few of you got your panties in a wad.
I didn't say it was not a good book, only that some of the reused material was somewhat disappointing, to me anyway.



yeah, my panties aren't in a wad. i'm just stating my opinion of your opinion on a public forum where keyboard warriors battle. i think it was childish and whiny to comment negatively on a book that took hours upon hours and it just gets me a bit riled when someone posts a creation of theirs be it a gun/holster/book and someone gets negative. you don't like it, fine, but remember what yo mama taught ya. if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. i've seen books/videos etc i didn't like everything in them but i keep my comments and critiques to myself. you should do the same.


I am having a hard time with the new book, just too similar to the other book, Big Bore Revolvers. A LOT of the SAME articles and photos. Just my opinion but if you are going to write another book at least write ANOTHER book. I can't read thru a complete chapter without seeing an article or picture from the first book.

And where do you see anything in my post that is negative?? There's nothing negative here, only an opinion. Now admit it, your panties ARE in a wad.
