Gas Trap Book
Billy Pyle's book is the most complete and with excellent drawings and photos. There are data sheets from gas trap rifles too.

Well, I found one on Amazon for $275.00. I guess I'll not be buying that anytime soon. Who sells a paper back version?

I got mine at the Calgary gun show for $60 Cdn two years ago. I guess I did well.

Try here.
You can buy all kinds of books for 275.00! (follow the link at the bottom).
A warning on Pyle's book though, it WILL make you want to buy all kinds of expensive stuff - and you can take it to the bank that contracting the numbered strain of Garanditis is potentially VERY costly ... really cool stuff though.

Next thing you know you will be considering buying a trigger for several hundred dollars - whoa, that's definitely NUTS!!!
But oh man, that is gorgeous, ... all in the white like that and not messed up by a repark and with that gorgeous pewter looking finish that is only accomplished thru age, wow ...
So, look out - you have been warned. Buy Billy's book at your own peril!
Or Scott's, or Walt's, or Bruce's, or eventually Wayne's, ... (grin).

Pretty neat, I'll have to look to see if any of my numbered triggers are like that.
Bodyman is right, this is wayyyy... addictive.
