Black Rifle : M16 Retrospective by R. Blake Stevens
A chilling study of small arms development and procurement in the post-Ordnance
US small arms environment, wherein OSD ‘whiz kids’ arrogantly called the tune
and shooting watermelons at a picnic passed for engineering development.
Beginning with the Black Rifle’s forebear, the Armalite AR-10, the story ascends
through the experimental small caliber/high velocity (SCHV) program at Aberdeen
Proving Ground and the .22 Gustafson carbine; the .22/NATO T48 of Project SALVO,
and the competing Springfield and Winchester .224 rifles.
An admirably researched in-depth examination of the many controversies
surrounding the 5.56mm M16 ‘package’ - where it came from: what it is; what it
is not; and why.

and keep in good repair any AR15 rifle.

variations and the M4 series of carbines. Want to use your AR15 in competition?
A detailed chapter describes the interaction needed between custom gunsmith and
shooter to produce a tack-driving rifle, plus a survey of parts and accessories
from barrels to sights. Three custom AR15s were built in the process of writing
this book space gun, service match rifle and .22 rimfire version for short range
and indoor practice. The step-by-step process is described.

repairs, telescopic sights, .22 rimfire conversions, .308 AR15-type rifles and

The Tactical Rifle : The Precision Tool for Urban Police Operations by
Gabriel Suarez
In a highly publicized February 1997 shootout, two rifle-wielding thugs managed
to outgun LAPD officers armed only with handguns after a botched North Hollywood
bank robbery. It was not until responding SWAT officers armed with rifles
arrived on the scene that the suspects were finally neutralized, but not without
police casualties. Though not the first incidence of police officers being
outmatched by criminals' superior firepower, this one was pivotal in bringing
about a serious re-examination of the use of the rifle for urban law
enforcement. In this book, Gabriel Suarez, founder and senior tactical
instructor of his department's Tactical Rifle Team, exposes the myths that have
long kept the rifle from being considered for use in urban policing. In
addition, he details the many advantages the rifle affords the inner city police
officer or SWAT operator in a wide range of deployment situations and presents
innovative techniques that are replacing the "traditional" ones among agencies
that have adopted the rifle. As we progress into the 21st century, the rifle is
likely to become an increasingly integral part of the police officer's tool bag.
This book will serve as a valuable guide to police tactical riflemen, making
their jobs easier and safer as they make the criminal's job more difficult and
hazardous.
