Here's the ultimate Xmas treat for all the hard-core
model 101 enthusiasts. The Crosman Arms
Library Vol. 2 - Crosman Arms Model-101 & 121-CG Engineering Parts
Drawings. The complete set of EPDs (Engineering
Parts Drawings) for the famous model 101 plus many EPDs of the
ground-breaking model 121-CG.
One of the first tasks that Rudy Merz had when he first went to work
for Crosman Arms in 1945 was to produce a new set of EPDs for the
venerable Crosman Rifle which had already been in production since
1925. However, it was the end of World War II and Crosman Arms had
moved to the Henrietta St. factory. It was to these drawings that
the model 101 was produced for the last 5 years of its production life.
Every production modification that takes place over those 5 years is
carefully noted. This makes it possible to determine the production period
of most post-war model 101s to a fair degree of accuracy.

The Chronology of Daisy Air Guns 1900 - 1981 &
Daisy Toy and Metal Squirt Guns, reproduction of a very accurate and surprisingly
detailed chronology that came out of a local repair shop, probably initially produced by
Daisy, but it doesn't indicate so. As a bonus, catalogs showing the many Daisy Toy Guns
including the complete history of Daisy metal squirt guns is included.
Don't accept cheap substitutes, this is the real one.

What people are saying:
"Dean has single-handedly made Crosman the most documented airgun
marquee ever! Get ALL of his books! " Dr. Trevor Adams -
Auckland, New Zealand.
Well put, Trevor. Couldn't have said it better. Book sales are what
keeps my writing and research going. Without the overwhelming acceptance of The
Crosman Rifle 1923-1950 and then the tremendous response to 75 Years of Crosman
Airguns, The extensive research and time required to complete the St. Louis
& Benjamin Air Rifle Cos. never would have happened. Thanks to
everyone for their he
Over the past 15 or so years, little would have been accomplished without
the many friends who have contributed their valuable efforts and resources to this
collection of history. In particular, I wish to thank Tambre C. Boda, Kathy Balbierer,
Herman Hofstetter, Bob Holtz, Jim Jereckos, Murray Pierson, Terri Schinsing, Jerry Sorce
and all the other Crosman employees present and past for their efforts. Of course, special
thanks also goes to all the readers of my books for their wonderful support.
