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?
 
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.
