An authoritative and readable illustrated record of now completed chapters in U.S. Military arms history - the Service use of the "Springfield" rifle and of the .30-'06 cartridge.

Covered are 5 prototypes and 21 standard rifles, with additional variations as to sights, 'scopes, and attachments. Also covered are the Pederson Device, Garand firing pin and Woody set trigger. For cartridge collectors there are some 60 pages with drawings devoted to every significant standard .30-'03 and .30-'06 cartridge, to past Match ammunition, and to Cal. .22 ammunition in the Service. For shooters, a third of the book is devoted to adjustment and maintenance, rational approach to Sporter rifle design, modern methods of modifying the '03 for target use, and informed selection of hunting loads.

Biblioteca di “Diana”, Editoriale “Olimpia”, Gennaio, 1940 – XVIII. Prima edizione. In 8vo, pp. 172 (con Indice), ill. fot. in b/n f. t., bross. edit. Si tratta di una raccolta di racconti della vita venatoria dell'Autore, e delle sue cacce nel Veneto ad anatidi, quaglie, beccacce e beccaccini, in cui scrive di amici, di cacciatori per mestiere, di ambiente, di pesca in valle. Dalla Introduzione: “Gli anni in cui della caccia facevo la pratica quotidiana e la doppietta era per me lo strumento abituale, né più né meno che come oggi è la penna..”, anni in cui spesso abbandonava lo studio di avvocato per un impellente richiamo della palude e dei suoi silenzi. Senz'altro un ottimo libro, ricercato. Manca la sovracop. con normale lieve ingiallimento del tempo, ancora intonso al frontesp., conservazione molto buona.
