Just caught up here re "Rifleman's Rifle" dimension of this Thread. For me generally, books are vehicles of entertainment/information and especially as repetitive reference. Digitalized versions as available, ever so much handier. Content in arms length reach everywhere my laptop goes! The fact of my fairly competent hard copy as compelling compromise as pre-digital. Even then, as every dollar for a publication, one less for the guns which were the whole purpose of the books!

Not to 'Dis' books including the "collecting of". But I'll continue the "vehicle" approach as conjuring the "collector editions" as maybe cumulatively accounting for one or two rifles. Ones you can read about as ones I own!

Different strokes for different folks... Respectfully!
Best!
