The final book in the series of German target arms; but the story is not all told. The arms covered in this volume are the pistols and parlor (Zimmerstutzen) rifles. The Germans almost single-handedly created free pistols and the vast array of types makes a interesting collection. The Zimmerstutzens which died out because of laws during the occupation after World War II, were the predecessors to todays air rifle shooting. Again there is a endless variety of types and variations. The accessories such as sights and loading tools as well as medals, steins, and related items comprise the balance of the book. Hardcover 388 pages, full color photos.
