Rough Forged revision reprint

I am going to keep my original copies of RF and buy the revised edition when it comes out. The first edition will hold it's own value. The revised edition RF will be sold at a reasonable price when it first comes out.

True. For myself, space is at a premium and I'd rather collect the contents of the books, if I start collecting collector books instead of using them as a guide for collector items the books are about, it just seems asinine to me haha.

Always interested in what you guys write though I don't visit often.

I have emailed and PMed some of you to take a look at the SVT sections to check my corrections and mitigate post-publication complaints or concerns.

Yes, I should have the revised Rough Forged into the printer in the next couple of weeks. I have noted and corrected where possible the many concerns voiced on the original thread as well as the emails and letters I received. During COVID, I was not allowed in the printing facility to check contrast, hue, detail because of the pandemic restrictions in place at the time. This time the printer is a mere 25 minutes from me and I will be able to see each page come off the presses and can make adjustments on the spot. So, I think you will be pleased in the end. We've added some stuff, subtracted some stuff, etc. as well.

Got your mail. Will do my best to be done next week.

Autographed copies or may we send self-adhesive labels for signature?

There's a feature on the frontsightpostpublishing.com website that asks you if you want it autographed or not.

I don't want to announce pre-sales until I am completely satisfied and that the printer will have the capacity in the timeframe requested.

Warm regards,

Darrin

Sent back document with annotations. If you didn't get it, let me know.

Curious if any new information ever came to light on the "R" stock stamps. Been discussed here in the past:
I'm thinking the suggested repair & use by French troops in Indo China as it was suggested is most likely the case

Tag for updates

Darrin was kind enough to inform me the book is already at the printer. I'm looking forward to the updated version!

Will these be available at the Tulsa November show?

No idea, I hope Darrin currently reads in here too and finds the time to answer this.

I was hoping that revised version was going to include Magazine makers/ codes, it was not to be.

Took me until right now to take note of your post. Are you aware there meanwhile is a book that covers MKb42 to MP45 magazines in every little detail that you can imagine? I had posted about it here: https://www.k98kforum.com/threads/mp44-magazine-book.59613/

On the upper level. On an end cap, across from where the hot poster signing gun chicks are. So, if looking across the main center isle, on the left side by the wall support beams. I can’t remember the table number. I just usually know where to go. When you see the ladies, just look over to the end cap able across that isle and you’ll find him.

Ok cool, I've passed his table many times and seen all of his books (he may be the reason why I have both roughly forged books cause I think I bought mine there) hopefully the new edition will be ready by Wanenmacher.
