About this title

Synopsis

A survey of owners of British falling block rifles made it apparent that not many people had more than a few of these rifles, and generally not more than one or two of any one type. There was, therefore, little opportunity for individuals to compare one of their rifles with others of its type. The purpose of this study is to illustrate the various patents, tell how these patents were utilized, and in what quantities the rifles were made; to try to establish serial number ranges and show details of action variations and their development.

Store Description

The Dyfi Valley Bookshop was established by Barbara Beeby in 1988 in a conservation area of the ancient market town of Machynlleth, mid-Wales. It has a relaxing atmosphere, a wood burner in winter, and a friendly black labrador, Lochie. We have a large general stock in addition to the specialist subject matter listed on this page. The town itself is very attractive and well worth a visit, situated as it is in the lovely valley of the river Dyfi (Dovey) which runs through the hills to the Irish Sea at Aberdyfi nine miles away. Owain Glyndwr established the first Welsh parliament here in 1404, and the building still stands. Why not pay us a visit? You won't regret it.
