Greenhill Dict. of Guns and Gunmakers: from Colt's First Patent to the Present Day, 1836-2001 - Hardcover
Synopsis
The Greenhill Dictionary of Guns and Gunmakers contains a wealth of data on the art of gunmaking and identifies every individual gun and gun-type produced since 1836. This indispensable reference book is a comprehensive guide to the sheer number and variety of guns and a valuable insight into the art and artists of gunmaking. The Greenhill Dictionary of Guns and Gunmakers gives universal coverage of guns and their manufacturers - and associated trades such as gun merchants - from the patenting of the Colt in 1836 to the ultra-modern weapons of today. It includes every manufacturer from Abadie to Zurch and every gun from the Abas to the ZVP. This valuable and unique book presents biographies of gunmakers, outlines their activities, provides data on their manufacturing, gives sources for further information and assesses their impact. Entries on individual guns detail variants, and present key manufacturing data and histories alongside an outline of performance and features. Significant technical terms are also explained, making this a comprehensive guide to the history of weaponry.
