Another excellent collector's reference brought to you by ASMIC , the American Society of Military Insignia Collectors: Equipping the Corps, 1892 to 1937: Volume 1, 1892 to 1937: Webgear, Weapons and Headgear by Alec S. Tulkoff Buy It NOW for $79.95 plus shipping. Think you know Marine Corps gear? Wait until you see this! The long awaited follow-up to the award winning "Grunt Gear" has taken seven years to research and it does not disappoint. The research and writing of this book was originally done in order to compliment the "Book of the Year" award winning - "Grunt Gear: USMC Combat Infantry Equipment of World War II." Tulkoff has once again combed through countless archives and private collections to bring never before seen USMC pieces of equipment and photographs together in this first of a two volume set. Volume I covers, field gear, small arms (pistols, rifles and machineguns) and head-gear. The evolution of the Marine Corps bell crown cap is meticulously documented with both photographs and archival documentation. Arsenal and Quartermaster records thought to have been destroyed were located and new serial numbers attributed to the Marine Corps have been identified for Krag rifles (1,000) as well as M1903 rifles, M1912 Colt Automatics, BARs and even a handful of shotguns.
