The Illustrated Directory Of Guns: A Collector's Guide To Over 2,000 Military, Sporting & Antique Firearms

 

The most comprehensive reference book on guns available to collectors, sportsmen and other gun enthusiasts. It includes over 2,000 guns of all types - the first single volume to do so. Organized A-Z by country and gunmaker's name, the book traces the development of the gun from its roots in 14th century Europe, perhaps even earlier in China and the East, through its evolution during the 18th and 19th centuries and the gun's corresponding rise in technology and production. The book also shows the historical uses for the different types of guns-hunting, making war, breaking and defending the law, honing one's marksmanship skills, and shooting for fun. It is written by a technical expert who has fired many of the guns featured, with comprehensive text and full specifications and colour photos of original firearms for each entry.
