References We developed the supporting text for all the rifles on this site using the sources listed below, all from our in-house library. BRITISH RIFLES MAUSERS (General) MAUSERS (Sweden) US RIFLES OTHER CARTRIDGES M1 PARTS POSTER Ratings provided below (number of bullseyes) are my own judgment (personal, fair and balanced, absolutely objective, and totally unbiased), having read every one of the books (well almost). The higher the bulls-eye count, the higher the rating. (5) = What, you don't have this already?!? Well, rush right out and get it. ...Now. A must-have, basic reference. (4) = Put this on a must-buy-and-read-when-found list for the next visit to a gun show book table or for online shopping. (3) = ...Ehh! If you see it on the shelf; buy it, especially if at a 'give-away' price. (2) = Graciously accept this if someone gives it to you, but prioritize it on your read list, as dead last, after you've read all in front on it. (1) = Good for filling out a row on your shelf; again, graciously accept this if someone gives it to you, and I think it could also prop up that wobbly planter over there just fine.

A compendium book, with minimal text, but just enough to add to the appreciation of the picture.) US RIFLES The Krag Rifle Story by Franklin B.
