Glossary of Firearms terms

Posts that don't fit into any other category. If it's anything to do with guns, it probably doesn't belong here!

Glossary of Firearms terms

Post by SMJ » Sat Jun 13, 2015 5:53 pm

Hello All,

I came across this and I am not sure if someone has shared it before. I could not find it upon searching. I found it pretty useful for a novice like me to relate better to the technical posts - hope it helps some of you too :)

SMJ,

This is good information,I have saved a copy for printing and storing with my other downloaded books on guns. It will serve well as a reference book.
Thanks for sharing.

Regards

Atul

Helpful for the novice, but like most things Wiki, errors and nonsense as well.

Thanks TwoRivers,

I had taken it as a bible of firearms. But it seems one has to crosscheck as well.

@Atulji - most welcome sir; but its just something I came across - no effort really :)
@Two Rivers - completely agree about wiki errors and misinformation chief- after all anyone can edit any article on wiki and put in their own two cents- right or wrong :D However it would be great if maybe someone here could take this information and delete/correct the rubbish and re share with correct information.

Have a great Sunday gentlemen!
