Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover
A detailed and beautifully illustrated book that tells the full story of Remington Firearms model by model with more than 200 clear photographs. Separate sections cover all the company's output, including Pistols and Revolvers, Rifles and Carbines, and Shotguns. The range of firearms discussed spans everything from Rider's diminutive parlor pistol, which relied on a percussion cap to propel its diminutive .17 projectile, to the might .30 caliber Browning Machine Gun of 1917 which had a firepower capability of 600 rounds per minute.
Many interesting historical pictures and company posters complete the story.

Customer Reviews

The History of Remington5
The information in this book is amazing. It is very interesting for any person interested in rifles. Pictures are real and very informative.

For the Novice 2
This is a superficial look a Remington's products. It is fine for the novice but there is little new information for the more informed gun nut. Pictures are nice of the old factory and early development.
There are better sources.

Bought as a gift4
My father use to work for Remington Arms as a project engineer back in the sixties. I was born in Ilion, New York. He really enjoys the book. I gave it to him for Christmas.
