Genesis of the Pocket Auto Pistol, 2nd Edition - 175 auto pistols accompanied by over 300 high quality pictures.
Description: The Genesis of the Pocket Auto Pistol, 2nd Edition, takes the reader back to where it all began, Europe on November 21, 1891. More than 175 auto pistols, both American and foreign, that were available in the international marketplace between 1891 and 1920 are examined. More than 300 high quality, color pictures will accompany the discussion. There is a detailed accounting of the contributions of the early designers, with the features found in today's auto pistols traced back to the pistol in which they first appeared. The 17 year process of the U.S. Ordnance Department's review of the semi-auto pistols for military use is also examined. An assessment, 100 years forward, of the initial criticisms and reservations regarding the use of auto pistols, along with a review of new materials, technology driver innovations, and today's pocket auto pistol marketplace is also included. The bookconcludes with a discussion of the early pocket auto pistols that the author believes would fare well today ... unchanged. SOLD |
