THE MOST COMPLETE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MACHINE GUNS OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY. From the first "shotguns" and "quick-firing guns" tested in battles with the Turks in the Balkans, Central Asia and China to the machine guns of the Russian-Japanese, World War I and Civil Wars. All about the great weapons revolution, which forever changed military affairs and ushered in the era of automatic weapons.
“Kings of the battlefield” - this title was earned by machine guns on the fronts of the First World War, where they were massively used not only by infantry, but also by aviation, air defense, fleet, mounted on armored vehicles, armored trains, tanks. It is no coincidence that the machine-gun cart became one of the main symbols of the Civil War in Russia. In the book of the leading historian of small arms, the reader will find comprehensive information about all the machine guns of the Russian army - not only domestic, but also purchased abroad and captured, like easel ones (Maxim, Vickers, Colt, Schwarzlose, MG.08 ), and hand-held ("Lewis", "Madsen", "Hotchkiss", "Shosha", Fedorov's light machine gun), about their design, production, procurement and features of combat use.
