The Colt Model 1905 Automatic Pistol

Rating:
Summary: Author's objectives
Review: When I wrote this book it was intended for the Colt and automatic pistol collector. The main objectives were to provide the collector with the factual information about the variations of the pistol and provide a guide for helping the collector identify all of the pistol's variations.

There is a limited amount of color and background but there is a maximum amount of detail as to physical changes in the pistol during its' production years. For example, most assume that there were two hammers used in the production models; there were four and they are identified.

The correct boxed amunition for these pistols is also identified and described.

If you collect automatic pistols and if you want to insure that the M1905 you are considering is correct, this book is for you. It should be noted that in many cases this information does not jibe with what is currently in print, but it is accurate as per surviving models that were surveyed for the factual information in the book.

Most previous information about the M1905 has been in error, our intent was to correct the errors with facts.
