About this product

Product Information

The Handgun Story traces the history of the 'one hand gun' from its fourteenth-century origins to the products of today. The earliest pistols had a tendency to misfire, but this was cured by the cap-lock. Cap-lock revolvers proved a success in the American Civil War with hundreds of thousands used on each side. Self-contained metal-case cartridges

    The Handgun Story: A Complete Illustrated History

    A great book. This is perhaps the best handgun book that I have found. I heartily recommend this book as both a reference and a beautifully illustrated pictorial guide. The history and chronology is interesting. I also use this as a coffee table book, and practically everyone who comes over picks up this book and wants to know where I purchased it.
