Hardcover. Condition: As New. 1987 (Appears to be a later printing), 313 pages. Pictorial hardcover published without a dust jacket. Hundreds of photographs. From 1935 to the collapse of the Third Reich in 1945, German ordnance designers played an important role in the formal development of the modern assault rifle. The German Assault Rifle: 1935-1945 is the most comprehensive volume ever on the German assault rifle of this era, covering this generation of German infantry weapons where appearance gave way to the demands of optimum performance and mass production. Innovative design requirements brought forth relatively lightweight selective-fire shoulder weapons capable of being fabricated on simple metal forming and machining equipment with minimum skilled labor, and these are covered here, as is the evolution of Germany's intermediate range "short cartridge" and corresponding weapons based on the sheet-metal concept of small arms manufacture. A thorough presentation of the circumstances surrounding the development and fielding of the machine carbine, machine pistol, and assault rifles employed by Hitler's Wehrmacht during World War II, The German Assault Rifle: 1935-1945 also includeds a complete review of the ammunition, field accessories, and special equiment intended for the short cartridge weapon. In addition, it provides unparalleled historical and photographic coverage of the unique automatic rifles designed for use with the standard German service cartridge. Here is the complete story of a most significant era in modern small arms development, highlighted with more than 400 exceptional photographs. Excellent. A beautiful Very Fine As New copy at a reasonable price. Seller Inventory # DP033
