The book opens a series on the armament of the Russian army during the First world war. It describes the rifles and carbines used in the Russian army in 1914-1917. For each sample, a brief history of its creation and adoption, as well as the main changes that the system was subjected to in the course of its release. It is told in detail about the use of weapons in the army, its advantages and disadvantages in the eyes of contemporaries. In addition, the book describes a number of experimental models of weapons that have not entered the army, without which the reader’s idea of the level of development of Russian weapons and technical thought of the early XX century would be incomplete.
In writing the book widely used materials of archival collections, as well as published sources of the early XX century, mainly special and technical literature, today is a rarity. The book is provided with extensive illustrative material from both archival and Museum collections and private collections. Much of the information contained in the book is published for the first time.
