“Tag: world war ii”

A new version of the military's most-produced firearm.

The Bulge was a rifleman’s battle.

Although not as widely used as the M1 Garand, the Smith-Corona Model 1903A3s saw service in every theater of the war.

I have this old gun.

National Firearms Museum Senior Curator Philip Schreier and American Rifleman Technical Editor Glenn Gilbert discuss the history and legacy of the MP40, the submachine gun used by the German army during World War II.

After World War I, Thompson became very interested in, if not obsessed with, the concept of a “trench broom,” as he called it, for close-quarters fighting.

Thompson submachine guns served with British troops during World War II.

The .45-cal. M1911 and M1911A1 pistols saw widespread service in all theaters of the war and further cemented its stellar reputation as one of the finest military handguns of all time.

At American Rifleman’s seminar “The Greatest Pistol in the World: 100 Years of the U. S. Model of 1911,” two distinguished World War II veterans who will speak during the session, also will be available before and after the presentation to sign books, DVDs and autographs.
