| (Rockets and Missiles) These marvels of technology extend the reach and amplify the deadlines of the modern warrior. But their genesis came centuries ago – and legend has it that it all began with an accident! Trace the evolution of the rocket, from the first Chinese “fire arrows” to the latest supersonic, heat-seeking missiles. (Bullets And Ammo) Without ammunition, guns are little more than finely machined clubs. From the earliest hand-cast lead shot to the finest factory-made centrefire cartridges, it’s ammo that makes a firearm sing. For 500 years, ammo makers have tried to construct bullets so they’re easier to carry, quicker to load, and more powerful than the enemy’s! (Shotguns) The first specialised gun, British upper-class used it to shoot birds and small game for sport. But through the years, the shotgun took on a variety of roles, used by hunter and warrior alike. For more than four centuries, the shotgun was the weapon of choice for those who could afford one! (Guns Of Remington) The Remington Arms Company is America’s oldest gun manufacturer. Since 1816, Remington has produced over 35 million firearms, including pocket-sized derringers, shotguns, and long-range rifles. See how Remington firearms helped tame the Old West, win wars in Europe and Asia, and earn medals in Olympic shooting competitions. |
