  • The American Civil War and Military Technological Change
    THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR AND MILITARY TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE DOCTORAL THESIS University of Tasmania Department of Political Science cloie` cvotae? Marc Bowles February 1991 iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis was born from an interest in the area but was brought to fruition under the encouragement of many individuals. I am especially indebted to Professor Harry G Gelber who provide invaluable supervision, and suggestions, while all the time nurturing a flagging student. To Janette Kahl, Andrew Sharman, Calvin Sharman (no relation), Peter O'Toole, the staff of the Central Defence Department (Canberra) Library, and the University of Tasmania Morris Miller Library, go my thanks for your patience and assistance. Obviously, despite all the support received, responsibility for the selection of the materials and the treatment of the topic is entirely my own. For the record as well, this thesis contains no material which has been submitted for the award of any degree or diploma in any university or college and to the best of my knowledge and belief the thesis contains no copy or paraphrase of material previously written or published by another person unless I have made acknowledgement in the text of this work. Marcus Bowles ABSTRACT Military technology change is a subject of enormous diversity and profound complexity. To reduce the topic to some ordered form the thesis discusses military technological changes in one period; the American Civil War from 1861 to 1865. The thesis also contends that military technology cannot be studied in purely physical terms. Only in conjunction with environmental elements can we fully comprehend technical change. This will enable us to make sense of technology as both a technical entity constructed from existing scientific knowledge, and as a human activity interacting with the surrounding environment.

  • Ine Repeating Firearms Are Not a New Invention
    The Los Angeles Silhouette Club A Short History of the Levergun By: Jim Taylor Magazine repeating firearms are not a new invention. There are some in existence that were developed as early as the 17th century, with several variations known. Almost all of them are finely built arms. Most are of European manufacture and are of flintlock ignition. And importantly, all them are basically impractical and most are dangerous to shoot, not because of workmanship, but because of design. What opened the way for a practical magazine-fed repeating levergun to be built was fixed ammunition. A self-contained metallic cartridge with the bullet, primer and powder in one unit is what made a useful levergun possible. This advancement is generally acknowledged to have begun with Walter Hunt of New York with the patent and manufacture of his "Volition Repeating Rifle". Hunt's rifle is a direct ancestor of Winchester as we shall show. The gun itself was doomed to failure from the beginning due to it's manufacturing requirements. It had a complicated arrangement of two levers and a series of small delicate parts that made manufacturing the levergun a financial liability. But it had fixed ammunition. The Volition rifle was built around Hunt's "Rocket Ball" ammunition. Developed by Hunt the "Rocket Ball" was basically a hollow- based bullet with the powder charge in the hollow base of the bullet. Mr. Hunt secured a patent (# 5,70 1) on August 10, 1848 for... "a ball for firearms, with a cavity to contain the charge of powder for propelling said ball, in which cavity the powder is secured by means of a cap enclosing the back end." It also was a disaster commercially, but it was a beginning! It is generally believed that only one or two of his rifles were ever built.

This presentation is not a definitive study of the topic, merely a sharing of the interesting material that others have discovered to help you enjoy the items on display in the exhibit room. The definitive story is told in Mel Carpenter’s excellent book An Introduction to Gyrojets and Other MBA Ordnance,1 available from his website http://Gyrojets.net and his excellent articles in Arms Heritage magazine.2,3 Carpenter’s magnificent research concerning all types of Gyrojet ordnance items, and much of the larger history of MB Associates who made them, is so detailed and well- presented that there will be little for others to add to it. It is truly a fascinating story of how scientific innovation does not always translate into commercial success.

  • The Story of the Legendary Winchester Rifle the Gun That Won the West, and a Lot More
    ! " SUBSCRIBE The Story of the Legendary Winchester Rifle The gun that won the West, and a lot more. By Matthew Moss Sep 30, 2016 547 # $ % & Seen in the hands of countless cowboys and Indians in countless Westerns, the Winchester rifle is often hailed as one of the guns that "won the West." There's a lot more to the story than that. The rifle that became the Winchester had a long, tortuous development that involved some of the era's most influential businessmen and inventors. Its famed lever action fought the American Civil War and many other battles long before the Winchester became a favorite of the likes of Buffalo Bill, sharpshooter Annie Oakley, and even President Teddy Roosevelt. ADVERTISEMENT - CONTINUE READING BELOW Ancestors The Winchester's technological family tree runs through the Henry Rifle, used during the Civil War, and on back to 1849, when inventor Walter Hunt patented the Volition Repeating Rifle. Hunt's rifle incorporated the two key features that would define the Winchester: a tube magazine under the barrel and a lever action that loaded rounds into the chamber. Hunt's original Volition Rifle was ingenious but cumbersome, so he sold the design to a businessman who hired gunsmith Lewis Jennings to improve it. Jennings patented numerous improvements and sold thousands of rifles by 1851. & His gun could hold an impressive 24 rounds, though these were small and underpowered. Theodore Roosevelt is hunting suit, and carved Tiffany hunting knife and Both rifles used an ingenious form of ammunition Winchester rifle. called the Volition or rocket ball, which had a GEORGE GRANTHAM BAINE propellant charge in its base.
