Samenvatting | This easy-to-read and instructive handbook is a useful guide for anyone interested in pistol-related technology. Packed with information, this publication systematically explains and illustrates the fundamentals of pistol manufacture in detail. You will find bonus notes complied over 25 years of first-hand experience plus valuable background information making this edition a valuable reference book and a worthwhile read. For the first time, hands-on fundamentals are combined with professional information in an easy-to-read and instructive format. Questions on manufacturing, testing, and pistol technology are answered in the light of commercialization. The high level of the research subject and existing trends are revealed to the reader throughout the book. This is done to a previously unavailable extent that reflects the latest state of research.
The author takes us far back to the late 19th century, and explains why so much from this time period is still relevant today. Through this reflection on the past it is easy to see how a historically unique evolution paved the way to where we are today. This momentary snapshot elaborates on practical issues and presents a broad panorama of the topic. Owing to the presentation, the extensive source material, along with bibliographical references, the Textbook of Pistol Technology is an outstanding supplement to the monographic publications of recent years. This work offers a holistic overview, which in particular brings together fundamental approaches and the traces of individual achievements in technology along with regulatory hurdles. The descriptions are strikingly engaging as a result of the alternation between practical explanations and easily comprehensible examples. |
