Download or read book The Complete Shot Classic Reprint written by G. T. Teasdale-Buckell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Shot Beginning would involve the necessity of giving that and other puerile information. Nobody would be the better for a learned chapter on gun actions. In the first place, these actions are no longer patents, they are open to anyone who likes to use them, and consequently the days when one selected a gun-maker because his patent action was conceived to be the better, are long gone by. The reason is that each gun-maker can be trusted to use the best principle when he has a choice of them all, or at least the best available for the money to be expended upon its making in the gun. Ejectors are nearly in the same position but single triggers are not. I was so fortunate as to make a discovery in regard to single triggers that is now acknowledged to be of great assistance to the gun trade; the want of it had for a hundred years been the stumbling-block to the patent single triggers that had begun to trouble gun-makers in the time of the celebrated Colonel Thornton. That is referred to in its proper chapter, because single triggers now Occupy the place that formerly actions held, and at a later date ejector systems usurped, in assisting to the selection of a gun maker.

Download or read book The Book of the Rifle Classic Reprint written by Thomas Francis Fremantle and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the Rifle Many books have been written about arms and about rifles, yet so rapidly does invention move, that the subject is never exhausted. The events of the last two years have aroused a new interest in the rifle; soldiers, volunteers, civilians, all are alike keenly alive to its importance. At last we have begun to understand that the man, armed with a rifle, who is not expert in its use, is a mere mili tary fraud, and that, if he is to acquire skill, the only prescription is - a delightful pas time. I desire to acknowledge gratefully the ungrudging help of the many friends who have aided or advised me on points connected with this book. Were I to thank them separately, my preface would resemble a long bidding prayer. I would also record my warm sense of much goodwill and pleasant companionship during more than twenty-one years of rifle work, helped especially by patient and ungrudging kindness from shooting men of an older generation. There can be no finality in the evolution of firearms, at least until some quite new power of destruction shall make them obsolete. The present work, imperfect as it is, may serve to record the point which the rifle has attained at the opening of the twentieth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Abbey Improved: Chilled Shot Co There is a class of readers whose love of sport and nature is immense, but whose lines are laid for the most part in uninteresting Wildernesses of bricks and mortar. Letters Often reach me from such sources, and I gather that books of sporting reminiscences appeal most strongly, and bring feelings of delight, tempered maybe with regret, if they contain a whiff of the heather and turf reek, wafted through sunlight by breezes, perhaps brine - laden, to the music of rippling, gurgling streams, roaring rivers, or lake wavelets breaking on the Shore. Days in Thule with Rod, Gun, and Camera, and Days of My Life on Waters Fresh and Salt, made me many friends among the class I refer to, and I venture to hope that this latest effort of my pen will not be less pleasing to them and other readers than the two books of like character, which have gone before.

There is a plenty of vermin and birds of prey to practice on. Never kill more game. Than you can use, or kill game while it is sitting. It is more sportsmanlike to kill game while ying or running and it gives the game an equal chance of life, besides showing the superiority of man's ingenuity and skill over the powers of Self preservation with which nature has provided all living things.
