It is equipped with the finest machinery for manufacturing the celebrated Stevens ri?es, pistols and pocket ri?es. The highest skill is employed for boring and ri?ing these arms; and it is admitted by all familiar with the ri?es and pistols that nowhere in the world has the art of ri?e making been brought to a higher state of perfection than at this factory. Stevens ri?es and pistols, from their high reputation, have found their way to every part of the civilized world, and, as a consequence, this company is in receipt of letters from various parts of the world asking for information in relation to ri?e and pistol shooting. These questions cover a wide range of subjects. Most of our correspondents wish to know what ri?es to select for particular purposes; the proper way to shoot a ri?e or pistol; they inquire how to construct a suitable range; they also ask for recognized rules governing ri?e and pistol shooting. As such information is difficult to procure, this Com pany has decided to publish in this booklet informa tion which is most frequently sought. A ri?e is a gun, the inside of the barrel being cut with spiral grooves or channels, for the purpose of Spinning the bullets when the exploded powdercreates a gas and propels the bullet from the barrel; this Spinning motion giving range and accuracy to the bullet.
