    The Pistol in British Military Service During the Great War

    Centre for First World War Studies The Pistol in British Military Service during the Great War A dissertation submitted by David Thomas (SRN 592736) in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MA in British First World War Studies September 2010 1 Contents Introduction 3 Current Literature Review 3 Questions to be Addressed 5 Chapter One-Use and Issue 6 Chapter Two-Technique and Training 11 Accessories 14 Ammunition 16 Chapter Three-Procurement 18 History 18 Army Procurement 19 Royal Navy Procurement 23 Private Purchase 24 Overall Numbers 26 Conclusions. 26 Bibliography 28 Appendix 33 Acknowledgements 37 All rights reserved. No part of this work may be reproduced in any form or by any means without the written permission of the author. 2 Introduction The British military services made considerable use of pistols during the Great War but it is evident that there is widespread ignorance and poor literary coverage of the weapons and their use. It is proposed to examine the pistol in British military service in the Great War, covering issue and use, technique and training, and procurement. Approximately half a million pistols were procured during the war, making it one of the numerically most widely issued weapons. A number of Corps, including the Machine Gun Corps, Tank Corps, and Royal Flying Corps were issued pistols as personal weapons, as well as extensive distribution in other arms. It is known that pistol use was widespread in trench warfare and critical on occasions. Decorations, including several Victoria Crosses, are recorded as being won by men using them aggressively.

Pointing the shotgun, the little fellow shoots, pumps faster than lightning and smokes every target before any can hit the ground. Crush, crush, crush!

    Newsletter of the Utah Gun Collectors Association February 2014 PLEASE HELP! UGCA desperately needs someone to be Treasurer! The current treasurer has a great system of records in place, mostly automated using Quick Books, so this involves recording and report- ing ongoing operations, not start- ing something from scratch. If you have some Quick Books or basic accounting skills, PLEASE contact Nick at 801-495-xxxx for details on this important job. Like all UGCA leadership jobs, this is an unpaid volunteer job. March Show with March 8-9, 2014 Ruger Collectors again... The Ruger Collectors have asked to be included in our March show. We look forward to them returning with their great displays. It is always fun to see what “the other guys collect” just in case you are getting tired of BEST your current collecting interest. UTAH SHOW! Is that old gun loaded? A surprising number ARE loaded! Don’t trust those muzzle loaders! At the January show, a visitor brought in a muzzle loading swivel barrel pistol, which was sold to a member. Although our security folks do a great job with cartridge arms, it is a bit harder to check muzzle loaders. UGCA Board of Directors This one had Officers BOTH barrels President Gary N. loaded, even Vice President Jimmy C. though there Treasurer Nick W. were no caps on Secretary Linda E. the nipples. ALWAYS run a Directors 2013-2014 rod down the Jimmy C. barrel and make Gary N. sure it reaches Gaylord S. all the way to Don W. Nick W. the breech! Two powder charges and bulles from “unloaded gun.” Watch those tubular magazine guns! Directors 2014–2015 Jim D.
