Yes, it is part of the book. Just a little tease. If I don't stop I'll have the entire book online.

Don, you can keep teasing us, it helps to sell your book! I am purchasing two of your books. One to pass on to one of my grand sons and one will be a "working" edition for me. Amazing, WBR was thinking about a proprietary cartridge already in 1953, showing us how far ahead of his time his thinking was! Keep it up! Brass Frame/Lee

I've seen it!
Don had a copy at Dallas this last weekend. This book is sooo big, that it would crash our website if he tried to put it all on here. All I will tell you is that there is a lot of Ruger stuff in here that has never been seen or heard of before!
