Logan Metesh has co-authored and edited two new books that will be shipping in the next couple weeks, and signed copies are available directly from him.
The first book, “The World Encyclopedia of Pistols, Revolvers, and Submachine Guns” is a history of small arms from the 14th century to the present day, with comprehensive illustrated directories of firearms, with full technical specifications, from the medieval hand cannon and the matchlock handgun to the Luger P08 and today’s Glock 19M, including the Colt .45, the Lanchester, and the Beretta Mx4 Storm submachine gun.
The second book, “The World Encyclopedia of Rifles and Machine Guns” is a history of arms from medieval times to the present day, with comprehensive illustrated directories of firearms, with full technical specifications, including the Mauser, Lee-Enfield and the SAR 240.
Originally released in 2008 (“Pistols…”) and 2012 (“Rifles…”), the books were woefully out of date at 16 and 12 years old, respectively. Metesh was brought in to bring back the titles’ relevance by breathing new life into the material. He took the original manuscripts and edited the existing content as well as updated it by adding in new material, guns, facts, and entire countries, along with photos to accompany where appropriate.
