I had picked this book up several years ago, and don't remember that I ever looked at it until last night. The book was published in 1966.

There is a very funny story about Russian inspectors in the Remington factory during the production of the Mosin-Nagant rifles. I checked Amazon and there are a bunch of copies of this book for about $2.00 plus shipping. If you are a Remington collector it has some good storires about the development of their guns, but as a Mosin collector, this one, short, story is worth the price of the book.
