The World’s Assault Rifles, Third Edition, is an in-depth history of the gradual turning point from the type of rifles used by the world’s armies before the 20th Century.

The lighter, shorter and automatic models first seen in the mid-1930’s proved superior where closer offenses and mass assaults took place using the advances in rifles and ammunition.  77 countries, twenty-four chapters and some 1,200 images fill 1,239 pages with weapons and their history as never before seen, as well as a view of what the future may hold, not only in weaponry, but also how they affect how wars might be fought.
