In this book the author explores the use of the .45-caliber Springfield Trapdoor Rifle. It starts with a brief history of the rifle and its ammunition and an overview of some of the uniforms and equipment associated with it, then dives deep into making and packaging ammunition for it, the musketry theory of the period, ballistics, training, the use of the sights, and gives a detailed explanation of how to shoot the rifle the way it was used in period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hugh Knight\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1300701226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781300701224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/06\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.44d","brand":"Hugh Knight","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47304704295167,"sku":"9781300701224","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cc288de6-b5eb-4428-a30b-29c4ed3a05a3.jpg?v=1758828917","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/historical-shooting-with-the-springfield-hugh-knight-9781300701224","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
