Yup, flatbed scan it or quicker yet, shoot digital pics of each page, sell it for the $1k and still have a reference, and another gun...before the price falls when someone wises up and reprints this book.

Uh, guys... suppose there have been any actual sales at these prices? The book has been available for quite some time, and I gotta believe anyone who wanted one bought it at $50. Lack of supply dosen't necessarily mean an increase in demand.
I borrowed one when I wanted to get smart on the Superposed. Wasn't worth the $50 to actually own a copy... The M-21 book is a different story.

Actually, the ebay sales of this book that I've followed recently (the last year) have ranged from about $150-low/mid 200s.

Same has happened to Alexander Gray's 'The Hammerless Double Rifle' (Wolfe 1994) - You can amuse yourself (particularly if you own the book) by searching through the web for that. I checked only Amazon, and they offered three copies ($750-$850).
I bought mine for 30 bucks or so in 2000 or 2001.
Regards,

Gunsmithing by Mills and Barnes from '87 almost requires a home equity loan.

Schwing's M42 book on Amazon is shown at $350. Glad I got the M21, M42 and the Superposed books at their initial prices!

Wow!! My Superposed book is still in new condition. Sorry to say my Model 21 book looks like it has been through the mill.
