This catalog is a directory of military firearms, organized by country and then type, including handguns, submachine guns, rifles, shotguns, and machine guns. Each model is described, rated, priced, and illustrated with b&w photos; some are singled out for "Snap Shot" descriptions by expert collectors. Introductory chapters discuss what can be considered a military firearm and purchasing tips. The third edition has expanded sections on the M1 Garand and M1 Carbine, more photos, and auction results. Some bibliographic notes are provided in the front of the volume. Schwing is the author of Standard Catalog of Firearms and other books on collectible guns.
