  • Lethal Legacies: Illicit Firearms and Terrorism in France
    169 Lethal legacies: Illicit firearms and terrorism in France FRANCE Nicolas Florquin and André DesmaraisI This chapter analyses the illicit firearms market in France, the ways in which terror- ist networks have been able to access firearms, and the national policies that have been developed to combat (terrorist access to) the illicit gun market. Particularly since 2015, France has by far been the European country most affected by terrorist attacks involving the use of firearms. The use of fully automatic rifles in the January and November 2015 Paris attacks took an unprecedented human toll, with 147 deaths in those events alone.1 In 2015 the French authorities made 424 terrorism- related arrests, compared to 238 in 2014 and 225 in 2013.2 The recent attacks have created a push to reform the country’s intelligence and secu- rity forces in order to adapt to, anticipate and better respond to these threats.3 The gov- ernment has also identified a series of measures to tackle the issue of illicitly held fire- arms: the Ministry of the Interior’s National Action Plan was launched on 13 November 2015, just hours before the attack on the Bataclan theatre started.4 Yet these efforts can only rely on limited information on and analysis of the extent and nature of the illicit arms market in France, owing principally to the fact that levels of gun violence in France were previously moderate, if not low by international standards. This study constitutes an unprecedented effort to present and analyse data and information on illicit firearms and their acquisition by terrorist actors in France.

  • The Early Short, Magazine Lee-Enfield Rifle As Issued 1902-1932
    The Early Short, Magazine Lee-Enfield Rifle as Issued 1902-1932 By Kirk E. Brumbaugh "The essence of infantry tactics consists in breaking clown the enemy's resistance by the weight and direction of its fire, and then completing Ms overthrow by assault. Although the enemy may not await the assault, infantry must be constantly animated with the desire to close with him. Troops under cover, unless enfiladed, can seldom be forced to retire by fire alone, and a decision by fire, even if possible, takes long to obtain. To drive an enemy from the field, assault, or the immediate threat of it, is almost always necessary." General Staff, War Office, Field Service Regulations. Part I (London: HMSO 1909 as amended 1912) The history of the Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE) rifle is intertwined with events which set the strategic and 1 •fi tactical environment in which it was thrust when first issued in 1903. As a "weapons system," the Lee rifle, designed by American James Paris Lee, had been in British service for over a decade, first as a long rifle (1888), later also as a car- bine (1894). Combat experience in the Sudan in 1898, and the Boer War of 1899-1902, revealed the limitations of the rifle and carbine in their then current form and led to a fun- damental overhaul of British Army Doctrine and thought on how training, and development of a new rifle, should take place. Armies are frequently accused of planning for the "last war." For Britain and Empire forces, the period of 1900 through 1914 demonstrated exactly that.

  • Monte Carlo Stock
    Gun Stocks STOCK DESIGN AND STOCK STYLE Types of Gun Stocks A gunsmith requires a basic understanding of stock function prior to becoming a stock maker. A rifle stock, in function, is nothing more than a segment of wood, fiberglass, plastic, or other material shaped to support the rifle’s barrel and action. It also functions to conform to the shooter’s body so the shooter can control the firearm. That’s the mechanical side of it. However, arms lovers the world over consider a stock much more than a mechanical device. They think of a gun stock as a work of art and function (Figure 1). As a prospec- tive gunsmith, we hope this is your position. FIGURE 1—Notice the attractive oak-leaf pattern on this Bishop-III stock. (Photo courtesy of Reinhart Fajen, Inc.) Stocks can be built in a multitude of styles with a stock shape to fit everyone. Even factory rifles come in a wide variety of stock styles. Factory stocks, incidentally, have come a long way and can be considered quite good today, although cer- tainly not in the realm of a custom-made stock. Figure 2 shows a gun stock labeled with its proper nomenclature. 1 FIGURE 2—Become familiar with the names of the parts of a gun stock. Early Stock Design Turning the pages of gun history to an earlier time reveals that the first stocks well known to American shooters had a great deal to do with contemporary stock designs. However, such muzzleloader stocks left a lot to be desired.

In recent years, the US Army began actively looking for a replacement for the 5.56 mm M16/M4 assault rifle, which currently is the standard issue weapon for the infantry. The US Army has selected three potential companies to produce the next generation assault weapon. These are the following companies Sig Sauer, General Dynamics, and Textron systems. All companies have submitted prototypes for the next generation assault rifle that are the subject of the analysis in this paper. In addition, the companies also offer new types of ammunition for the abovementioned systems. The purpose of this paper is to compare the three assault rifle prototypes and the ammunition they use to highlight their potential strengths and weaknesses and to address possible reliability problems. Although many of the specifications of the weapons are the subject to company secret, the paper will provide a comparative analysis of small arms samples that plan to replace the 5.56 mm M16/M4 assault rifle, according to available information from various sources.
