{"product_id":"9781581607307","title":"Poor Man's Scout Rifle: A How To Guide","description":"\u003cp\u003eUntil Bob Cashner published the first edition of Poor Man's Scout Rifle in 2003, owning a scout\/utility rifle was impractical for most people. Commercial versions were rare and very expensive. Using common tools and easy-to-come-by parts, Cashner showed the average shooter how to fashion his own home-built scouts from a variety of tried-and-true, battle-tested military actions. His versions stayed true to Col. Jeff Cooper's original concept of accuracy and durability as the overriding criteria for such weapons, and to qualify as a poor man's rifle, he made sure his scout rifles were affordable to those on a limited budget. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany things have changed in the firearms world since 2003. The increased popularity of scout rifles – along with the skyrocketing prices for what were once cheap surplus rifles – convinced Cashner to update the original book to meet the needs of today's shooters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis revised how-to guide contains a variety of long-eye-relief scope-mounting hardware that wasn't even on the market when Cashner completed the first book, as well as information on the newest scout rifle scopes; revised prices for rifles, parts and ammo; and some additions and modifications requested by readers. Each of his creations meets the basic specifications of a scout\/utility rifle yet costs less than a quarter of what the commercial models would have.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paladin Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47055584854256,"sku":"9781581607307","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781581607307","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
