Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing with deceptive simplicity, the author describes the workings both of pistols and revolvers. He details such crucial aspects as feeding and firing systems, extraction and ejection, barrels and grips, sights, and the use of scopes. Moreover, his lucid discussion of bullets, powders, cases, and primers does much to illuminate his description of bores, ballistics, and how a bullet reacts once the trigger is pulled.
