I've been on the hunt for a copy of Larry Vicker's AR15 volumes. Might pick up "Misfire" (M16). What other related books do you guys enjoy?
 
For me, this was helpful for developing the basics. If you have access to a range, there's several drills at varying levels to develop. I mainly shoot pistols so speed and accuracy is my priority, working on handling. It's more like a text book though.

I don't have much. A copy of Bill Wilson's The Combat Auto, and Combat Handgunnery by Massad Ayoob. I do love to read, though.
 
When I was a kid, I was always excited when the new Gun Digest and Shooter's Bible came out. My newest edition is 40+ years old, but it appears that both are still published.
 
Also somewhat related; world of guns on the app store or steam has access to a large library of arms that are very detailed in regard to field stripping, assembly, disassembly, function, etc. $1.99 on the play store for access to all models.
 
Any book related to the Colt and other 1911's past and present, Authors:

Clawson
Goddard
Kuhnhausen
Sweeney
Mullins

Great bunch of information there. There are others but I can't remember them all.
