Book: ARGENTINE MAUSER RIFLES 1871-1959 |
|||||||||
 Publisher
States: This is the complete story of Argentina’s
contract Mauser rifles from the purchase of their first
Model 1871s to the disposal of the last shipment of
surplus rifles received in the United States in May
2002. Between 1891-1959 Argentina bought or manufactured
nearly 500,000 Mauser rifles and carbines for itself as
well as for its neighbors Peru, Bolivia, Uruguay and
Paraguay. It also supplied Spain with rifles to help
suppress the Melilla revolt in Morocco, which were
eventually used against the United States during the
Spanish American War of 1898. The Argentine Commission’s
relentless pursuit of tactical superiority resulted in a
major contribution to the development of Mauser’s now
famous bolt-action system. The combined efforts of the
Belgian, Turkish and Argentine arms commissions between
1889 and 1892 produced the origins of what became the
Model 98 bolt-action system that is still in use today
over 110 years later. Details include: thirty-seven
identified variants; the history behind each purchase
and the technical description of each variant;
contract-by-contract, and in the case of the Model 1891,
1909 and 1947 weapons a month-by-month, detail of
production and shipping data; over 400 pictures,
illustrations, documents and blueprints; history and
details of the manufacturing facilities in Europe and in
Argentina as well as a description of the manufacturing
process used by the “Matheu” (DGFM-FMAP) small arms
factory in Argentina; interesting and colorful anecdotes
about the people involved, including revelations about
spying and secret alliances never before revealed. 304
pages, with over 400 black and white and color
photographs, drawings, and charts.

Publisher
States: This new all-color reference provides
engaging insights into the main infantry weapons of the
five largest protagonists of World War II—Germany,
Japan, Russia, the United States, and Great Britain,
with particular attention to the actual roles these
weapons played in battlefield combat encounters.
Comparing axis to allies—who had the upper hand, the
fair (or unfair) advantage—author Jan Suermondt examines
the physical details (and provides current collector
values) of over 150 “small arms,” including revolvers,
pistols, rifles, submachine guns, machine guns, mortars,
grenades, and mines. Physical details include
caliber, barrel length, weights, firing mechanisms,
ammunition, ranges, and rates of fire. Includes
informational text identifying manufacturing details,
service history, and effectiveness
