Item description from seller

The format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. 60 pages, including covers. Illustrated covers. Illustrations. Tabular Data. Machine Gun News was published monthly to serve as a forum for Class III dealers and machine gun enthusiasts. Among the topics in this issue are Highpowe Rifle Reloading by Rovert Hausman; Evaluation of the Tactical Response Shotgu by al Paulson, Bonnie & CLyde by Rick cartledge; Subsonic .22 Ammo by Mark White, The AK Rate Reducer by Ken Carter, and an Interview with Ron Cable by Bill Conville. Ronald B. Cagle earned his Master’s Degree in Business from Stetson University. He served in the U.S. Army, leading teams of technicians in the electronics communications field in Germany. He was also a paratrooper in the 11th Airborne Division, participating in numerous tactical jumps. When he left the U.S. Army, he applied his expertise with Pratt & Whitney, where he led efforts in testing jet propulsion rocket motors. He then jpined the Philco-Ford Corporation and served at the newly-formed Manned Space Center in Houston as Telemetry Manager. He worked with Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong, participating in the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo Programs. He left Philco-Ford to lead the effort for the conversion of the Mobile Launcher Platform and the Crawler Transporter from the Apollo to the Space Shuttle configuration. He was recruited to join Harris Corporation, where he successfully lead many global electronics communications programs, and retired in the 1990’s. He was founder of the National Firearms Association. Bonnie Elizabeth Parker (October 1, 1910 – May 23, 1934) and Clyde Chestnut "Champion" Barrow (March 24, 1909 – May 23, 1934) were American outlaws who traveled the Central United States with their gang during the Great Depression, committing a series of criminal acts such as bank robberies, kidnappings, and murders between 1932 and 1934. The couple were known for their bank robberies and multiple murders, although they preferred to rob small stores or rural gas stations. Their exploits captured the attention of the American press and its readership during what is occasionally referred to as the "public enemy era" between 1931 and 1934. They were ambushed by police and shot dead in Bienville Parish, Louisiana. They are believed to have murdered at least nine police officers and four civilians. This article on the notroious pair highlights aspects suited for the readers of Machine Gun News and offers information and perspective not likely to be present in material written for other audiences. The author was an authority on the motorized bandits of the 1930s. The focus of this article were three clashes that the Barrow gang had with "Thompson wielding lawmen", all in 1933. There is a fascinating discussion not only of Clyde Barrow's driving proficiency but also of the variety of BARs, sawed off shotguns, and other weapons used during the gang's 'crime spree'. Because of the specialized nature of this publication and its relatively small, niche audience, this may be among the rarer of the 'modern' scholarship on Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow.
