New Light on the Forerunners of Modern Fire Arms Ammunition
by Georg Priestel
This work should serve to explain the historical background and events of ammunition development with its brilliant inventors J. S. Pauly and Henri Roux, and to put these inventors in a better light than it had previously been. The author rewrites the early development of the Pauly and Roux cartridges. This composition of many individual pieces of a puzzle gives a picture of how the story went from the beginning to the modern central fire cartridge.
Note

The IAA was founded in 1955 to serve cartridge collectors and professionals in the areas of ammunition research and forensics and their web site includes on line resources and discussion forum.
