Imagine my surprise, The QuarterMaster - yours for only R6037.50, there is also a copy for R3622.50, but it probably wont have pictures at that low price and then how will I be able to read it ?

Seems the cheaper copy is a second impression run and it is unsigned but still have the color pictures. The expensive one is signed and a first impression as per the website.

When I got my first edition copy on release I read it cover to cover in one almost uninterrupted session. It really is a world class publication and anyone even slightly interested in SA/Rhodie firearms would do well to get a copy.

Sometimes Classic Arms has the book on auction for a lower price.

I was at the book signing in Irene where all the authors signed my copy - as I recall I paid R490 for the signed first edition - wish I had purchased some more.

A no longer original example of the rifle on Gunafrica at the moment.

I gave one away as a gift and kept the other. It is one a very few books that I keep in its shipping box. Ian Mcollum of Forgotten Weapons reviewed it and gave it high praise and he certainly knows his way around the world of firearms reference publications.
