Synopsis from Preface: "This guide outlines a systematic procedure for identifying military cartridges as to cartridge designation, country of manufacture, and to a large extent, functional bullet type. Designed for use by persons who may not be familiar with small arms ammunition, it provides basic information on cartridge types, construction, and terminology as well as more detailed identification data. This guide covers military cartridges in calibers of 15mm and below, as well as several related paramilitary or target cartridges, that have been manufactured or used since 1930. Although some of the cartridges in this guide are obsolete in the country of manufacture, they are included because they were made in such large quantities that examples may still be found.''.
