This book is a comprehensive work covering the range of modern small arms used in today’s world armed forces.

The chapters cover the main weapons in use as follows

• Chapter One - Combat Pistols
• Chapter Two - Sub Machine Guns and Personal Defense Weapons
• Chapter Three - Assault Rifles and Carbines
• Chapter Four - Battle and Designated Marksman Rifles
• Chapter Five - Combat Shotguns
• Chapter Six - Sniper and Anti-Materiel Rifles
• Chapter Seven - Light Machine Gun, Light Support Weapons and Squad Automatic Weapons
• Chapter Eight - Support Weapons

Each chapter goes in to great details of each weapons in the category and provides a lot of reference work for anyone interested in modern weapons. It is also a treasure trove of information and photos for modelers of modern troops and weapons.

I have already used the book for reference in building and paint some modern SWAT team personnel and their weapons!

The images in the book are excellent.

I recommend this book to everyone.
