It is this unequalled inspiration from hunting, shooting and the outdoors that motivates us to go into a project and to add a new model to our portfolio. Here we have three advantages on our side. First: More than 50 per cent of our team are active hunters or sports shooters. Second: We can trust in a worldwide network of professional hunters and passionate outdoorsmen, who not only bring in new thoughts but also test our products under the harshest conditions. But the most important driver for the success of SAUER is our third advantage: The various personal contacts with you. No matter if it’s the conversation at an exhibition or the “gun talk” at the campfire anywhere in wilderness. You are the ones who trust in our rifles and shotguns in the most different areas and hunting situations. And this leads to an outstanding number of impressions, inspirations and demands that are included in our thoughts and actions for a new product. Our 2012 catalogue shows what this means in detail. Eight new models have been realized throughout the last twelve months. Each one sets the standard in its class but they all together represent the clear continuity of the SAUER values: Perfect precision in a timeless design. And the overwhelming feedback on all the shows clearly proves that each second listening to you was absolutely worth it. So on behalf of my whole team let me say thank you for all your passionate feedback and input. We all are looking forward to meeting you personally anywhere. Maybe at an exhibition but preferably at a campfire anywhere in wilderness… Matthias Klotz SAUER // 1881 HISTORY 1751 SAUER CREATES A SENSATION A vision of an ideal world – a FAMOUS QUALITY photograph showing Franz and Founded in Suhl, Elisabeth Sauer and their four sons J.

  • IN the GUNROOM THOMAS BOSS PERCUSSION BALL and SHOT GUN Donald Dallas When It Arrived on the Holts Premises, I Was Immediately S
    IN THE GUNROOM THOMAS BOSS PERCUSSION BALL AND SHOT GUN Donald Dallas When it arrived on the Holts premises, I was immediately struck by its condition. For a percussion gun built in 1854, this Thomas Boss gun was in excellent original condition. The stock was crisp, there were traces of colour hardening upon the locks and the whole gun looked like it had seen very little use. However when I picked it up I was struck by how heavy it was, far heavier than you would expect from a normal percussion gun. Then I spotted a patch box in the butt – unusual – then I spotted a rear sight on the top rib – unusual. I glanced at the bore – smooth bore – and for a few moments I was confused. What was it? The one factor that makes a Boss gun stand out from all their contemporaries is their consistent quality. From Thomas Boss’s early ventures in the 1820s right up to the present day without exception, Boss have built one class of gun only, the best. Their motto “builder of best guns only” is entirely apt. This gun, no. 1360, a 15 bore percussion gun is of the usual Boss quality coming out of the workshop at 73 St James’s Street in the year 1854. But what is it? I looked up the Boss records regarding the gun and they were quite confusing as they were rambling and included a lot of details about the original buyer trading in a pair of Mantons and so on. But amongst this were the details of this gun.

  • ATF E-Publication 5320.8 Revised: April 2009 PREFACE
    ATF E-Publication 5320.8 Revised: April 2009 PREFACE This handbook is primarily for the use of persons in the business of importing, manufacturing, and dealing in firearms defined by the National Firearms Act (NFA) or persons intending to go into an NFA firearms business. It should also be helpful to collectors of NFA firearms and other persons having questions about the application of the NFA. This publication is not a law book. Rather, it is intended as a “user friendly” reference book enabling the user to quickly find answers to questions concerning the NFA. Nevertheless, it should also be useful to attorneys seeking basic information about the NFA and how the law has been interpreted by ATF. The book’s Table of Contents will be helpful to the user in locating needed information. Although the principal focus of the handbook is the NFA, the book necessarily covers provisions of the Gun Control Act of 1968 and the Arms Export Control Act impacting NFA firearms businesses and collectors. The book is the product of a joint effort between ATF and the National Firearms Act Trade and Collectors Association. ATF takes this opportunity to express its appreciation to the Association for its assistance in writing and making this publication possible. i TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION Sec. 1.1 History of the National Firearms Act (NFA) …………………………….……………….1 1.1.1 The NFA of 1934 1.1.2 Title II of the Gun Control Act of 1968 1.1.3 Firearm Owners’ Protection Act Sec. 1.2 Meaning of terms ................................................................................................................2 1.2.1 “AECA” 1.2.2 “ATF” 1.2.3 “ATF Ruling” 1.2.4 “CFR” 1.2.5 “DIO” 1.2.6 “FFL” 1.2.7 “FTB” 1.2.8 “GCA” 1.2.9 “NFA” 1.2.10 “NFRTR” 1.2.11 “SOT” 1.2.12 “U.S.C.” Sec.

  • Worldwide Equipment Guide
    OPFOR WORLDWIDE EQUIPMENT GUIDE TRADOC DCSINT Threat Support Directorate DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTION: Approved for public release; distribution unlimited. Worldwide Equipment Guide Introduction This Worldwide Equipment Guide (WEG) serves as an interim guide for use in training, simulations, and modeling until the publication of FM 100-65, Capabilities-Based Opposing Force: Worldwide Equipment Guide. The WEG is designed for use with the FM 100-60 series of capabilities-based opposing force field manuals. It provides the basic characteristics of selected equipment and weapons systems readily available to the capabilities-based OPFOR, and generally listed in either FM 100-61, Armor- and Mechanized-Based Opposing Force: Organization Guide or FM 100-63, Infantry-Based Opposing Force: Organization Guide. Selected weapons systems and equipment are included in the categories of infantry weapons, infantry vehicles, reconnais- sance vehicles, tanks/assault vehicles, antitank, artillery, air defense, engineer and logistic systems, and rotary-wing aircraft. The pages in this WEG are designed for insertion into loose-leaf notebooks. Since this guide does not include all possible OPFOR systems identified in the OPFOR field manuals, equipment sheets covering additional systems not contained in this initial issue will be published periodically. Systems selected will be keyed directly to the baseline equipment contained in the 100-60 series and substitute systems found in the appropriate substitution matrix. The WEG is scheduled for eventual publication on the worldwide web for use by authorized government or- ganizations. WORLDWIDE OPFOR EQUIPMENT Due to the proliferation of weapons through sales and resale, wartime capture, and li- censed or unlicensed production of major end items, distinctions between equipment as friendly or OPFOR have blurred.
