I am after a copy of this out-of-print book if anyone has one available ;-)

And still looking . The very few ever listed are just silly money for my budget.

Have you tried Amazon? I have found a few books there that I could not find elsewhere.

Yes , sir - but being a very small print run and done ten years ago those sellers who have a copy ask far far more than my idea of the books value.

I think it may well be one of those unfulfilled wishlist books for me .

This is the book https://www.amazon.com/Remingt...gateway&sr=8-1-spell

Good luck, Muzza. Marcot's book on Spencer rifles is another of those "unaffordables," at least at my house.

I could stretch to $250 without effort , but the Remington book is out of control....sometimes it would be easier to be illiterate :-(

No buddy,it is NEVER easier to be illiterate!Good luck on your quest. I understand completely;my Mauser Hard bound is unavailable + folks are spouting absurd numbers.I don't want to sell it. It sets on my shelf + does'nt eat anything.Along with my original COMPLETE 17 volume set of Richards Burton's "Arabian Nights".Printed in 1870 + only 1000 copies printed;mine is XX.Look on Amazon.you will find partial sets starting at $2500.00. You will NOT find an original,1st. ed.set offered.

Sad to say,none of my sons are bibliophiles;thus when I pass,someone will get one 'helluvadeal'if sold on the open market. I would like to see that this not happen.Someone will get a GREAT deal + in truth,I will not be in a position to worry.I would like to see my boys get fair value on sales of the estate. But no worries. I know that I will live forever so this is a moot point....Good luck on your quest Amigo.

Dragging up an old thread , I know - but I managed to find a reasonably priced copy on Amazon this morning .I did decline to pay an additional "import duty fee" to Amazon to cover any import fees ( read - just another way to screw the buyer ) so my book will be shipping to South Carolina instead of New Zealand . Guess that means I will have to make another trip to the US soon....

Well if you're gonna be in the south anyway you might as well console yourself with some southern fried chicken +/or chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes.
