24 pp. Stiff wrappers, good condition with some damage in margins of several leaves from paper adhesion. Little impact on text. Spine weak. A very unusual early and rare catalogue of machine guns for military and law enforcement, though with warnings or restrictions on private sales. Such weapons were banned for private use in 1934.
