Dedication

This edition of Gun Digest is cheerfully and respectfully dedicated to you, the reader, who has made Gun Digest the world’s leading firearms annual since 1944.

Acknowledgments

This edition could not have been completed without the support of Jim Schlender, Gun Digest Books’s guiding hand, and of David J. Blansfield, our strongest corporate sponsor. Dave Hauser, Tom Nelsen and Patsy Howell lent their peerless layout talents, without which this book would never have been completed or look so attractive.

And a final word of thanks to those who prefer to be known only as EGH, EC, NA and JW, without whose help and support I would have been quite out to sea.

Cordially,

Dan Shideler, Editor GUN DIGEST

About the covers

FRONT COVER

Today, glory be, The Coonan Model B has been reborn in two incarnations by Coonan Inc. of Blaine, Minnesota. The new Coonan .357s are available in two configurations: the full-size Coonan Classic, with 5-inch barrel and seven-round magazine; and the Commander-sized Coonan Compact, with 4-inch barrel and six-round magazine. Both Coon-ans feature frames and slides made of 17-4PH stainless steel, and both are 100% made in the USA. A number of custom options are available. For more information, visit www.coonaninc.com.
