Just received David P. Bichrest’s new Model 54 book. 

Wow!  First the great 1895 Book last month and now a great Model 54 Book.

I have only had a chance to look at each page so far and am pleased to say he’s done a fine job.

If you like the Model 54 you will appreciate this book.  Hope you get a chance to get your own soon.

First I have heard of this book.

Where might one inquire about obtaining a copy?

Thank you,

OOOPS!  I just realized that I was privileged to obtain an “advanced copy” of the “WINCHESTER MODEL 54 BOLT ACTION RIFLE” book.  The book will be announced and available for order when the Fall “Winchester Collector” magazine comes out.  You may contact Mr. Bichrest at “David’s Firearms, Ltd.” His card is displayed in the Collector Magazine.  Forgive my “jumping the gun” (pun intended) on this matter.

All-

I spoke with David yesterday to secure a couple copies of the M54 book.  He said that he has the 1st printing copies in-hand, so they can be shipped out as quickly as you can get your orders in.  $85.00 postage paid.

Daivd’s contact information is in Brad’s post above. 

Looking forward to seeing this one!!! Laugh

Brad, I just got off the phone with David and will be getting a check in the mail to him tomorrow for a copy of it.  I was raised in the Beaumont-Lumberton area and really enjoyed speaking with him, too.  We also immediately recognized each other’s accent!!!!  The wife and I visited a few of our many folks and friends there last summer.  Anyway, I would like to order a copy of the book you and Rob published as well.  How can I ensure that you both autograph it for me if I order it at the link you have posted?

The 54er book is apparently not available for the rest of the world. Too bad

Shameless bump for a fellow Texan and an update on the 69 book. ?
