This full-colour presentation of more than 1,000 pistols from many different makers and countries is catalogued in alphabetical order. Each section is arranged in an essential chronological sequence following the various models and their development.
Technical data and notes accompanying each entry made an ideal study while the colour illustrations in most instances provide more detail than is possible with so many written descriptions. In fact, using a magnifying glass can bring up fine detail even more.
The result of a lifetime's collecting, this catalogue covers a wide range of models and manufacturers of antique, historical, sporting, presentation, target and service issue pistols and revolvers.
The alphabetic categories are...
A- Australasia
B- British (other than Webley & Enfield)

E- Enfield R.S.A.F.
