THE BROAD ARROW Mk2 British Empire Gun Bayonet Markings Skennerton Rifle Book

Description

The Broad Arrow Mk2 expanded & updated 2nd Edition British and Empire markings by Ian D Skennerton. Soft cover, 167 pages.

Ian Skennerton has revisited, expanded and updated the extremely scarce 1st edition Broad Arrow which was released in 2001 (long time out of print) with the must have to all collectors 2nd Edition. This book records, explains and defines the British and Empire (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, India, South Africa included) service markings found on rifles, pistols, muskets, edged weapons, bayonets and associated military items for example unit markings commonly found on medals. This is a most comprehensive reference, listing factory production, proof, inspection, armourers, unit, makers and issue marks on a weapon – if the weapon was made in the British or Empire (up to 1980’s) great chance the mark will be defined in this book.
