From the handguns, matchlocks, wheelocks and black powder flintlocks used in the Revolutionary, Napoleonic and American Civil Wars, the book looks at the progress of firearm design from 1800 to today.There are chapters on classic machine guns such as the Hotchkiss and Maxim and iconic submachine guns such as the Tommy Gun , plus chapters on the mechanics and technology behind the rise of Super Magnum revolvers, semi-automatic pistols and assault rifles. The directories present a superb pictorial guide to the most significant pistols, revolvers, rifles, machine and sub-machine guns.
