Description
Firearm Anatomy - Book I The Thompson M1A1 Submachine Gun by David S. Findlay is an in-depth exploration of gun design, focusing on the simplicity and hidden complexity of well-designed firearms. This book aims to spark interest in the field of firearms technology and encourage readers to investigate further. The author provides detailed technical data and analysis, including calculations for designing a magazine spring, as well as individual operation process sheets with dimensions for each separate cut. The M1A1 Thompson Submachine Gun is used as an example to illustrate these concepts. This unique book offers a comprehensive look at firearms design without being a picture book, combat guide, or maintenance manual. By examining the inner workings of the M1A1, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the design principles behind this iconic submachine gun.
