Tales of the Gun



Technology, War Documentary hosted by Thom Pinto, published by History Channel in 2000 - English narration







Information

------------------------------



In the centuries since the gun was invented, hundreds of innovators, engineers and inventors have brought their vision together to create what has become one of the most perfectly produced items ever made. This TALES OF THE GUN COLLECTORS SET chronicles the long history of firearm design and construction from the first, primitive weapons to today's computer-controlled, high-tech factories.

From the gunslingers of the Wild West to the newest technology being developed for tomorrows super-weapons, guns have etched a place in today's culture for their masterful combination of form, function and beauty.

15)  Guns of the Commandos

From the Thompson and Sten submachine guns of the 1940s to modern, ultra-compact M-16 SP automatic carbines, the commando has always relied on an impressive array of standard issue and exotic firearms. Today, these highly-trained shock troops are called Special Operation Forces, but expert use of weapons remains their stock-in-trade.
