THE FIREARMS CLASSICS LIBRARY of The
National Rifle Association and it's National Firearms Museum
Introducing
the Firearms Classics Library, an illustrious collection meticulously curated
for aficionados by the prestigious National Rifle Association and its esteemed National Firearms Museum. Crafted by Odysseus Editions, Inc., later known as
Palladium Press, these leather-bound volumes stand as monuments to the rich
tapestry of firearms history and evolution.
From the groundbreaking Colt Rifle to the iconic Winchester, each volume narrates pivotal moments that have influenced the
course of nations. Explore the intricate workings of the Remington Rifle and marvel at the brilliance behind Eliphalet Remington's inaugural breech-loader. Embark on a journey of discovery with African rifles, witness the armaments
that defined both the Union and Confederacy, and uncover the captivating saga of the Colt Revolver.
Encased in opulent ribbed leather and embellished with exquisite gilt decorations. Every page, adorned with edges of 22 karat gold. Printed on acid-free parchment-like paper, these volumes defy the erosive passage of time, meticulously sewn to ensure their endurance through generations. Complete with sumptuous satin endpapers and delicate silk placeholders, these books offer an immersive odyssey into the heart of firearms history.
Set out on an exploration of a curated selection of esteemed titles, painstakingly preserved for discerning collectors. From Roy F. Dunlap's "Gunsmithing" to Elmer Keith's "Keith's Rifles for Large Game," each volume faithfully replicates its original edition. Whether you seek enlightenment on rifle precision or the artistry of handgun shooting, this collection presents an unparalleled depth and breadth of knowledge.
Though Palladium Press has shuttered its operations, this collector's treasure trove remains a lasting legacy, now a relic of the past. Seize the opportunity to possess a piece of history with 70 volumes of this extraordinary anthology kept in pristine, like-new condition.
