183 pages. Soft covers. A lot of "common knowledge" about Civil War pistols and revolvers simply isn't true. By test firing the guns of the civil war, we learn which guns were the best and why? By shooting original handguns from the Civil War with carefully reproduced ammunition, the author is able to explain why some of them performed well in combat and others did not. The handguns tested include the Remington New Model Army, the Colt M1851 Navy and M1860 Army, the Starr M1858 and 1863 Army, the Joslyn Navy, the Savage Navy, the Whitney Navy, the Allen & Wheelock Army, the Lefaucheux M1854, the Pettengill Army, etc. The author also tests privately owned revolvers. Exccellent. Language: eng Language: eng Language: eng Language: eng.
