Download or read book Gunsmith Kinks written by F. R. "Bob" Brownell and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an assemblage of professional ?know-how,? the likes of which has never before been made available between the covers of one book - or many books. Although highly technical in nature to the point of being the secret art of the professional gunsmithing craft, it is presented in the off-the-cuff manner of friends chewing the fat between themselves in a language anyone can understand and enjoy - and learn new and wondrous procedures in the process.The hundreds and hundreds of kinks are the result of discussions between Bob Brownell and the thousands of gunsmith friends with whom he has corresponded over a period of some 30 years. Every bit of technical information gleaned from this vast storehouse of gunsmithing know-how was squirreled away to be presented as a helping hand to the gunsmith and to those gun lovers who do their own care and repair, building and re-doing...not to mention the serious ?buff? whose thirst for knowledge in this direction is nearly insatiable. Anyone who owns a gun will find this book a delight, a revelation and a life-long friend.The 668 separate titles and their broad subject matter are completely cross-indexed by 1,268 entries. Three hundred and seventeen drawings, photographs and blueprints leave nothing to the imagination. Individual articles and kinks are in the unedited words of each writer, giving the smell, feel and atmosphere of the gunshop...even the jokes he has enjoyed over the years are included to make this truly ?his? book...and after you have read it, ?your? book as well!

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Modern Firearms Parts and Assembly Book written by F. R. "Bob" Brownell and published by . This book was released on 1959 with total page 1057 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Modern Firearms, Parts and Assembly is, as its name implies, an encyclopedic collection of all information available from American arms manufacturers pertaining to the parts for, assembly and disassembly, repair and maintenance of the firearms of their manufacture as of January 1, 1959. Its purpose is to supply, for the first time in history, to those associated with guns, either professionally or as an avocation, a single source of authoritative information covering the technical and mechanical features of a firearm?s physical components, its repair, replacement, manufacture and care. And, now that most of the firearms covered are no longer in production, the information is even more valuable. What little information was available is out of print, original manuals have been lost, the Encyclopedia is the only place to find information. The Encyclopedia also offers two additional unique advantages to its users. First, it contains the complete specifications of the hundreds of pins, screws and helical springs shown in the many parts lists throughout the book. This information has never before been available in printed form. Second, The Encyclopedia contains in their entirety the four Department of the Army Technical Manuals covering sporting shotguns, the Springfield rifle and the .45 Cal. Automatic pistol. These are replete with precisely written service and repair instructions and accompanying pertinent illustrations of every phase of the work.By combining The Department of the Army Technical Manuals with factory information on the same guns, a complete and rounded picture is given of all phases of service for the gun being discussed.

Download or read book Of Arms and Men written by Robert L. O'Connell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1990-04-19 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The appearance of the crossbow on the European battle field in A.D. 1100 as the weapon of choice for shooting down knights threatened the status quo of medieval chivalric fighting techniques. By 1139 the Church had intervened, outlawing the use of the crossbow among Christians. With this edict, arms control was born. As Robert L. O'Connell reveals in this vividly written history of weapons in Western culture, that first attempt at an arms control measure characterizes the complex and often paradoxical relationship between men and arms throughout the centuries. In a sweeping narrative that ranges from prehistoric times to the nuclear age, O'Connell demonstrates how social and economic conditions determine the types of weapons and the tactics used in warfare and how, in turn, innovations in weapons technology often undercut social values. He describes, for instance, how the invention of the gun required a redefinition of courage from aggressive ferocity to calmness under fire; and how the machine gun in World War I so overthrew traditional notions of combat that Lord Kitchener exclaimed, "This isn't war!" The technology unleashed during the Great War radically altered our perceptions of ourselves, as these new weapons made human qualities almost irrelevant in combat. With the invention of the atomic bomb, humanity itself became subservient to the weapons it had produced. Of Arms and Men brilliantly integrates the evolution of politics, weapons, strategy, and tactics into a coherent narrative, one spiced with striking portraits of men in combat and penetrating insights into why men go to war.
