A large format 8.5 x 11 reprint of Musketry Regulations. The originally issued 4x5 inch book is almost 100 years old and not easy to find or read because of the small type. It answers a lot of questions that puzzle many collectors and shooters. Do you want to learn how the British and Commonwealth armies trained and used the Lee Enfield rifle? This is the book you need!! The Lee Enfield vastly improved infantry firepower and changed battlefield tactics. It was the first magazine fed, rapid fire rifle. It altered how wars were fought.

CHAPTER I - 1. General Instructions...CHAPTER II - ARMS AND AMMUNITION, DESCRIPTION & CARE OF ARMS...CHAPTER III - THE THEORY OF RIFLE FIRE AND ITS PRACTICAL APPLICATION...CHAPTER IV - MUSKETRY EXERCISES, AIMING & FIRING INSTRUCTIONS

Interesting look at the British Army's weapon training 100 years ago. It was in response to their performance in the Anglo-Boer war and it shows what made the British Expeditionary Force on the eve of the Great War.
