Reviews

"Photos, drawings and paintings season Osprey's study ... Alan Guilliland's cut-aways ... proved excellently informative. An index and summary of primary and secondary sources complete contents. And the whole thing is annotated!" --David L. Veres, www.cybermodeler.com (May 2013) "In this book, author Chris McNab covers the development of automatic rifles including those developed by other countries and how they influenced German design. Each of the major types, Gew 41/43, FG 42 and StG 44 are fully covered in their means of operation and their development. The book has many period photos as well as photos of extant guns. This is further enhanced by a few nicely done pieces of artwork showing these guns in use. It is a great addition to the Weapons line of books and is a title that any enthusiast needs to have on their shelf." --Scott Van Aken, Modeling Madness (April 2013)
