I'm not aware of Alex's first book being available digitally anywhere unfortunately. A couple hard copies have appeared for sale in the trader forum over the last couple years. I wouldn't expect that to happen too often though since I believe only 500 copies were ever printed. Most were sold through this site to Gunboards members though, so this is the place to watch.

 

It was on sale on Amazon Kindle. I have a copy. No longer on sale there.

 

I was on the preorder type list when they went on sale, but somehow got skipped. I still regret it a decade later. Ugh.

 

The Russian version is a lot larger (~700 pages) with many color photos.

Unfortunately seems difficult to get with the current sanctions too...

 

I saw a physical copy on Ebay maybe six months ago. $200 BIN and it sold fast. Like with so many other books on firearms they go out of print quickly and then the price just shoot up.

 

I'll have to keep a lookout regularly then, thanks!

 

Due to the war in Ukraine Alex has had to keep a low profile. That said I am sure once the war ends things will change.

In the mean time the book Nick recommended ia great.

 

Is there any way to get it without importing from Russia due to sanctions?

 

It was worth the hassle, though:

 

It isn't only the shipment that's problematic - how are you going to pay for the book(s)?

 

Yeah that's the other problem
