Rifle Marksmanship U.S. Marine Corps-I just picked this up recently and it looks to be a good, basic "How to shoot an AR" book. <I did see a strange photo of a Marine shooting with the M16 resting on it's handguards on a cement loading dock as he kneeled behind it, I'v always thought you were supposed to keep a hand or something between the rifle and a hard surface?>
www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1581603169/qid=1093310588/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/102-2932832-4944952?v=glance&s=books Tactical Rifle : The Precision Tool For Urban Police Operations by Gabriel Suarez This is a little more advanced than "Rifle Marksmanship" with less emphasis on basics of sighting and shooting positions and more info on things like malfunction clearing, tactical reloads, transitioning to pistol etc. www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1581600496/qid=1093310305/sr=8-5/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i5_xgl14/102-2932832-4944952?v=glance&s=books&n=507846 The AR-15 Complete Owners' Guide Walt Kulekw ith Scott Duff-an overview of basics of the history, parts, operation, cleaning and assembly of the M16/AR15 www.fulton-armory.com The AR-15 Complete Assembly Guide by Walt Kuleck and Clint McKee a more indepth book on assembling AR15s. Sure you might not need it for most builds, but it's fun to read  Also available from Fulton ArmoryThe Art of the Rfle by Jeff Cooper www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0873649311/qid=1093311839/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/102-2932832-4944952?v=glance&s=books&n=507846 Okay so Cooper poo poos M16s and it's basically a kind of thin, over priced coffee table book. But it's still a fun read and Cooper's love of rifles (well at least big rifles with wood stocks  comes through. |

Black Rifle Retrospective.
Great AR history book. Whoever arranged the paragraph structure in that book should be slapped though. |

 So it’s not just me!! Here a few more to add to the above mentioned books: Black Magic - The Ultra Accurate AR15, John Feamster. Black Rifle II, The M16 into the 21st Century, Christopher R. Bartocci ($$$!) The Complete Guide to AR-15 Accuracy, Derrick Martin and Barrett Tillman. The Complete AR-15/M16 Sourcebook (2002 edition), Duncan Long (some of Long’s books are a bit sloppy, but this one is decent) The M16/AR15 Rifle, A Shooter’s and Collector’s Guide, Joe Poyer. Some of the Answer, Urban Carbine, Jim Crews (admittedly not an AR specific book) |

This should be the last book you buy. It was published by Zediker Publishing (i.e. the author) for a reason. He claims to be an English major. I doubt it. Merlin eta: Feamster's book is excellent as is Martin's. |
