Weapon Identification Guide

#1

Post by baldeagle »

This site appears to be quite a useful resource for identifying weapons. I searched for it on the forum but found no mention of it.
The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation where the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. James Madison

Not too comprehensive, though.

U.S. revolvers failed to show any S&Ws.

It'd be even more funny if some journalists didn't actually use it........

Jane's puts one out. I bought it a few years ago, and of course it's now out of date.
Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... (Jefferson quoting Beccaria)

:biggrinjester: I knew I had something similar to that. It took me a while to remember where I stored it. Obviously the same pictures with a couple extras and some altered labels.

That's a great guide, but the 4th one down on the left should read "Hi-Powered Fully Automatic Military Service Revolver."
