The History of Winchester Firearms: 1866 to the Present

Now in its Seventh Edition, The History of Winchester Firearms is the definitive illustrated guide to the company behind “the gun that won the West.” It covers Winchester’s full line of weaponry, beginning even before Oliver Winchester took over and renamed the company. This newest edition goes gun by gun, from the precursors of the repeating rifle to the most recent and finely made pieces in the gun-maker’s catalog, up to 2007. Hundreds of legendary weapons are illustrated with photographs and described in-depth, with specifics on details, measurements, and manufacturing runs. This is the most complete source of information on the guns that changed the American landscape, and every marksman, gun collector, and student of U.S. history will consider it invaluable.
