Product Information

Excerpt from Practical Hints on Shooting: Being a Treatise on the Shot Gun and Its Management; Game, Wildfowl, and Trap Shooting; Together With Notes on Sporting Dogs and Ferrets, and Other Useful Information Relative to Shooting Although there have been several excellent works on guns and shooting published within the last few years, the majority of these books are intended for the use of sportsmen who have had more or less experience in shooting, and many of them are so full of technical expressions that a person unacquainted with gunmaking would be unable to grasp the meaning of half the matter. Again, there are many books written, t only on shooting, but on field sports of all kinds, which contain so little information as to be practically useless to the vice. In penning these few pages, therefore, we shall endeavour to place before the reader in as concise a manner as convenient a plain outline of the shot gun; its manipulation and necessary appendages; also shooting in all its branches - excepting with the rifle and pistol - together with a few comments concerning sporting dogs and ferrets, at the same time purposely omitting as much as possible technical terms and long-winded explanations. As this treatise is merely written for the benefit of beginners, we shall t enter into the multifarious details of gunmaking, barrel-boring, and all the intricacies of the various systems of gun-locks and breech actions w in use, as the tyro would probably find such both tedious and uninteresting.
