Military Small Arms of the 20th Century – Hogg & Weeks (1977, Hardcover)

Hardcover copy of Military Small Arms of the 20th Century by Ian V. Hogg and John Weeks. This is the 1977 third edition published by Arms & Armour Press. A trusted reference covering the development of small arms from 1900 to the late 1970s.

Includes over 600 illustrations—photos, line drawings, and technical specs—covering pistols, rifles, submachine guns, machine guns, and more. Entries include both well-known and lesser-seen weapons from around the world, such as the Brazilian INA M953, Chinese Type 64, and Czech ZK/383.

The book is in fair to good condition. Pages are clean, though there’s some age-related foxing and wear to the spine and dust jacket, and the front board adhesive has come away from the first page binding. Still a solid reference copy for collectors or enthusiasts.
