    Textbook of Small Arms????

    I’m thinking of purchasing the book “The Textbook of Small Arms” as they have reprints selling at reasonable prices.

    Question, is there any difference between the newer books and the older originals, meaning are the newer books abridge with less information or are they the same in content as the older originals.

    My main interest is any information on the Enfield Rifleicon, testing and development.

    Thank You
