Download or read book Sharpshooting written by W. W. Greener and published by Loose Cannon. This book was released on 1900-01-10 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A British classic Written in 1900, by renown british gunmaker W.W. Greener, this classic text on shooting sports and technique is a must read for any marksmanship enthusiast. His foresight on the eve of the First Great War in seeing the need for a larger percentage of the populace to know the art and skills of the rifle, for the good of the empire, was the motivation behind this work. He details the general target and service rifles/ammunition of the era and then proceeds to detail rifle shooting techniques. The student of marksmanship will not go wrong with this introduction, and the expert will also find his discussions of equipment and sighting accessories of the time to be illuminating. Of special note is his description of both trick shooting and formal international competitions of the time at Bisley (of which the official Bisley competition rules are noted in the Appendices). Serious riflemen of all skill levels will find this to be a most interesting and informative read.

Book excerpt: First published in Great Britain in 1881 and subsequently revised nine times between then and 1910, The Gun and Its Development traces the fascinating history of weaponry: the obscure, ancient origins of the slingshot and the bow, the invention of the crossbow, possibly around 1000 AD; the introduction of gunpowder into Europe in the fourteenth century; the development of sporting and military guns over the centuries thereafter; and the rise of modern, mass-produced firearms in the early twentieth century. Chapters cover early to modern handguns; gunpowder ignition methods from fuses and flintlocks to percussion fulminates; shotguns; hammerless guns; ejector guns; the history of the firearms industry; manufacturing methods and their development in Britain, America, and elsewhere; how to use and handle different types of guns; ballistics; the development of rifling and smokeless powder; and much more. Copiously illustrated with photographs and marvelous engravings, The Gun and Its Development is the classic, authoritative reference work on the subject, certain to be of great interest to marksmen, hunters, gun collectors, and anyone interested in military or industrial history.
