Previously available only as fragile and expensive originals,
or overpriced photocopies. Now we can offer reasonably priced,
quality reprints of the exact same pocket sized WWII era Field
Manuals used by the fighting men who put Omaha Beach and Iwo Jima
under new management. The TMs (Technical Manuals) for these two
classic weapons have always been readily available, and are great
references for the armorer. The Field Manuals offered here cover
all necessary user level mechanical information such as disassembly
and assembly, maintenance, cleaning, functioning, operation, stoppages,
spare parts, instruments and ammunition. But those topics are
just the starting point of the FM. The bulk of these FMs deal
with actual training and tactical employment of these weapons
on both an individual and unit level. Includes individual and
unit marksmanship practice and training; how to engage a single
enemy soldier, moving vehicles or overflying aircraft. This is
information not found in the Technical Manual, but is covered
in these books in some detail. Both softbound.

BLACK RIFLE II - The M16 Into the 21st Century
by Christopher R. Bartocci. Sequel to the 1987 The Black Rifle.
The M16 has gone on to become the longest-serving shoulder arm
in US history, and the benchmark against which any new military
rifle, American or otherwise, must now be compared. The M16 today
is at the center of a thriving, multi-million-dollar industry
involving numerous companies and military agencies who are designing
and manufacturing drop-in upper receivers in various configurations
and calibers, plus complex rail systems and other high-tech accessories,
all based on the M16 platform, which grows more firmly established
with each passing day. This book chronicles all the new third-
and fourth-generation rifle and carbine models which have been
introduced by Colt and Diemaco since The Black Rifle was originally
published, and describes and depicts the myriad of enhanced sights
and rails systems which help make the M16s of today the most versatile,
modular and effective combat weapons in the world. It also includes
a comprehensive survey of the Colt semi-automatic-only family
of commercial and law enforcement products, in .222 Remington,
5.56mm (.223 Remington), 9mm and 7.62x39mm, and an in-depth Reference
Compendium of all Colt military and civilian models and components.

six years in the making and worth the wait! After a decade of
retaking their stolen freedoms, the people of Wyoming are forced
to finally confront their jealous masters in the U.S. Government.
Can a lone, courageous state successfully resist federal tyranny,
or has the Bill of Rights been reduced to a myth? Can an allegedly
free people act free, or is our liberty just a 4th of July farce?
These issues weigh heavily on the shoulders of Governor James
Wayne Preston, a decorated Desert Storm Marine helo pilot. Elected
in 2014 on the Laissez-Faire Party ticket, he enjoys nearly full
support of the legislature to return Wyoming to a long-lost era
of liberty. But how far can he and the people of his state go
before Washington feels compelled to act? Will Wyoming's free
and independent course reach actual secession? Will President
Melvin Connor suppress the maverick Western state with federal
troops? Softbound, 454 pages.
