The Airgun from Trigger to Target

[Bandito]

A classic on airguns by G V and G M Cardew! I have a copy and just wondered about a copy to give as a Christmas gift. Looked at ABE Books and couldn't find one. Neither the first or second one was anywhere in their system. That is a lot of used book stores with nothing on a subject. There wasn't a reference to other books on airguns in their system. Are they that rare? No Encyclopedia of #Spring Air Pistols as well. A dearth of books on the subject! I will find a book on some history of warfare as a second choice.
Are there other airgun books to search for? Used or New? T I A. Be Well Brothers, 'dito.

It's worth noting that about 30% of the info is applicable to all airguns, but the real focus is on springers. I think I paid $60 for my copy around 2016(?).

@Bandito I had similar interest in airgun literature and the dearth thereof. There are a few titles listed here https://www.airgunnation.com/thread...g-literature-feel-free-to-contribute.1316942/

I looked to see if there was anything available in the UK, I could not believe the prices being asked. Made me wonder how much my hardback signed copy would be worth, though I am not going to sell it.
