Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entering service in 1897, the Arisaka family of bolt-action rifles armed Japanese troops and others through two world wars and many other conflicts, including the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–05. Issued in long and short versions – the latter for cavalry and specialists – the Type 30 was the first main Arisaka model, arming Imperial Japan's forces during the Russo-Japanese War, though after the war it was refined into the Type 38, which would still be in use in 1945. The main Arisaka rifle of World War II though was the Type 99. Lighter and more rugged than the US M1903 Springfield rifle it would face in the initial battles in the Pacific, it was produced in four main variants, including a sniping model and a take-down parachutist's rifle. Featuring full-colour artwork as well as archive and close-up photographs, this is the absorbing story of the rifles arming Imperial Japan's forces, from the trenches of Mukden in 1905 to the beaches of Okinawa 40 years later.

Book Synopsis Technical Manual for Rifle U. S. Type 99 Japanese Cal . 30-06 by : Ltc Arisaka Nariakira
Download or read book Technical Manual for Rifle U. S. Type 99 Japanese Cal . 30-06 written by Ltc Arisaka Nariakira and published by . This book was released on 2017-09-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KNOW YOUR RIFLE! During the Korean War, approximately 126,500 short and 6,650 long Type 99 Rifles were re-chambered under American supervision at the Tokyo arsenal to fire the U.S. Military M2 -.30-06 Springfield cartridge. These rifles were fitted with a lengthened magazine well and had a small notch cut in the top of the receiver ring in order to accommodate the .30-06 round's 1/3 of an inch greater overall length. The Pentagon rather wisely wrote a Technical Manual for the converted rifles that addresses inspection of the weapon, care, assembly and function. This then is that TM. Truth be told, an Army Technical Manual is an instructional book. In this case it names all of the Arisaka rifle parts and details what they do. Its illustrations show those parts in mechanical drawings. Naturally there is a section on disassembly and assembly of the Arisaka Type 99. The bayonet is covered briefly, as is the different types of .30-06 ammunition that can be fired out of the rifle (M-2 Ball, Tracer, Armor Piercing, blank). The section on the antiaircraft sights explains how the sights are to be used and which marks on the sight arms correspond to speed and distance. In other words, the narrative explains how to use the sights to shoot at aircraft. (Golden BB notwithstanding, good luck with that!) Modestly illustrated and printed in Large Format (8 x 10). You should also know this manual is widely available in PDF format online. But it has problems. The physical copy the PDF was made from is said to have been a bring home from a U.S. GI. It is faded, blurry and hard to read. Our print version has the distinct advantage of being crystal clear and you can hold it in your hand, and reference it without having to do a file search. Finally, it has been suggested that this is actually a South Korean manual. Our editors considered that possibility when the book was still under consideration for publishing. But to our way of thinking it did not make sense that the US Army Ordnance Corps would take on refitting tens of thousands of Type 99 rifles and not participate in the writing of its manual. Moreover, you will notice the book is written in English, not Korean. Few South Korean soldiers spoke, much less read, English.

Book Synopsis The G3 Battle Rifle by : Leroy Thompson
Download or read book The G3 Battle Rifle written by Leroy Thompson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-30 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Cold War, the G3 was one of the world's pre-eminent battle rifles. Developed in France and Spain after 1945, the rifle was produced by the German arms manufacturer Heckler & Koch. Adopted by more than 40 countries and produced on licence by many more, it was widely employed during colonial wars in Africa, insurgencies in Latin America and conflicts in the Middle East, but perhaps its widest use was in the Iran–Iraq War. Variants of the G3 have also seen substantial usage among Special Forces including Britain's Special Boat Service and the US Navy SEALs. Semi-automatic versions, especially the HK91 and HK93, remain popular in the United States, and the G3-derived HK11 and HK21 family of light machine guns have also been widely adopted by military and law-enforcement units across the world. Fully illustrated with specially commissioned artwork, this study examines one of the iconic weapons of the Cold War era.

Book Synopsis Japanese Military Cartridge Handguns, 1893-1945 by : Harry Derby
Download or read book Japanese Military Cartridge Handguns, 1893-1945 written by Harry Derby and published by Schiffer Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When originally published in 1981, The Hand Cannons of Imperial Japan was heralded as one of the most readable works on firearms ever produced. To arms collectors and scholars, it remains a prized source of information on Japanese handguns, their development, and their history. In this new Revised and Expanded edition, original author Harry Derby has teamed with Jim Brown to provide a thorough update reflecting twenty years of additional research. The authors have retained the format and much of the text of the original edition, focusing on military cartridge arms from the 1893-1945 period. Signal pistols, foreign-procured military handguns, ammunition, holsters, and accessories are also covered. Significant changes are included based on new findings, and a great deal of new information has been added, together with color illustrations of significant specimens. A number of newly discovered variants are identified and described, and expanded tables of reported serial numbers and production data are provided. Coverage and explanation of Japanese markings has been greatly enhanced, and a detailed study of inspection marks on the most widely known Types 14 and 94 is included. An appendix on valuation has also been added, using a relative scale that should remain relevant despite inflationary pressures. For the firearms collector, enthusiast, historian or dealer, this is the most complete and up-to-date work on Japanese military handguns ever written. Like its predecessor, it is certain to become a classic firearms reference and a benchmark for further research.

Find out about the parts played by the rifle's namesake Colonel Arisaka and learn all about the fascinating history and evolution of this esteemed battle rifle."

Book Synopsis Hotchkiss Machine Guns by : John Walter
Download or read book Hotchkiss Machine Guns written by John Walter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-28 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created by a long-forgotten Austrian nobleman, Adolf Odkolek von Augezd, the air-cooled Hotchkiss machine gun was the first to function effectively by tapping propellant gas from the bore as the gun fired. Although the Hotchkiss would be overshadowed by the water-cooled Maxim and Vickers Guns, it proved its effectiveness during the Russo-Japanese War. The gun, quirky though it was, was successful enough to persuade Laurence Benét and Henri Mercié to develop the Modèle Portative: a man-portable version which, it was hoped, could move with infantrymen as they advanced. Later mounted on tanks and aircraft, it became the first automatic weapon to obtain a 'kill' in aerial combat. Though it served the French and US armies during World War I (and also the British in areas where French and British units fought alongside each other), the Odkolek-Hotchkiss system was to have its longest-term effect in Japan. Here, a succession of derivatives found favour in theatres of operations in which water-cooling could be more of a liability than an asset. When US forces landed on Saipan, Guam and Iwo Jima, battling their way from island to island across the Pacific, it was the 'Woodpecker' – the Type 92 Hotchkiss, with its characteristically slow rate of fire – which cut swathes through their ranks. Supported by contemporary photographs and full-colour illustrations, this title explores the exciting and eventful history of the first successful gas-operated machine gun.
