Описание книги

410's are generally lightweight shotguns that produce little kick, making them a popular choice for beginners, youth, or anyone sensitive to recoil. However, their full choke barrels force them to concentrate the available shot, therefore they require the precision of an expert to be effective at any significant distant. Collectors, historians, enthusiasts, and those recapturing their youth will be captivated by this fascinating recount of the .410.<p>


Representing the culmination of 30 years of research, this book catalogs the 125-year developments history of the .410 shotgun in both the United States and Britain. A mixture of rich images and historic illustrations provide a treasure chest of information valuable to small-bore enthusiasts-both collectors and hunters alike. Coverage includes makers such as Browning, Ithaca, Winchester, Boss, Holland &amp; Holland, Purdey, and others. Plus, all significant gunmakers include detailed listings of production numbers.

AMERICAN & BRITISH 410 SHOTGUNS

.....

The pinfire breech-loading shotgun, introduced by LeFaucheux at the Great Exhibition of 1851, was manufactured as late as 1896 in Great Britain. Dickson & Sons produced the last one in Britain, but manufacturing continued in Europe into the early 20th century [35,36]. However, no English-made pinfire 410 has surfaced in the records or in the marketplace. The pinfire cartridge, patented in 1836 by LeFaucheux, was manufactured well into the 20th century, at least until 1935, by Eley. It was available in the 410 bore by 1895.

Daw introduced the centerfire cartridge in 1861 and Greener describes many centerfire field trials comparing 12, 16, 20, and 28 bores under varying conditions. These took place from 1879 through to the end of the 19th century without mention of the 410 bore.
