'This is the revised and completely updated edition of Marchall-Ball's bestseller, which came out in the early 80s. It begins with a description of how today's sporting shotgun slowly evolved from the military weapons of the Middle Ages. The change from a gun that could only be used for sitting shots to one that could be used for wingshooting began with Henry Nock's patent in 1787, and The Sporting Shotgun follows the devlopment of the sporting shotgun from that time to the present day. This book is crammed with invaluable information on side-by-sides; over-and-unders; repeaters and automatics; the workings of a shotgun; and ballistics, and it provides a solid foundation of information while answering questions that so often confuse a novice. This is a must-have book for every shooting enthusiast and is a companion to The Sporting Rifle.
