129 pages. Soft covers. The Military Remington Rolling Block Rifle (Expanded Edition) by George Layman is a definitive country-by-country collector's guide. It chronicles the history of the legendary rolling block action, detailing how E. Remington & Sons supplied over 30 global militaries with more than 1.5 million rugged, dependable single-shot breechloaders during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The "Remington System": Originally patented by Joseph Rider, the action relies on a pivoting breechblock locked in place by a separately pivoting hammer that wedges securely behind it. Despite being overlooked by the standard U.S. military at the time, it became the standard service rifle for countries ranging from Spain and France to Egypt and Denmark. Later models accommodated high-pressure smokeless powders, and some variations remained in use even into World War I. A Fine copy with only light use.
