This document is the compilation album of all 12 months'
journals of the British NRA for the year 1912.

The issues contain many contemporary articles on shooting, full-bore and small-bore (miniature) rifles and pistols, both civilian target and military arms of the period, ammunition and targetry. There are National, International, Clubs, Schools and Bisley competition details, reports and results for the year. A plethora of advertisements for the famous manufacturers and gunsmithing companies of the day, publicising their rifles, pistols and accessories, run through the whole annual, as well as photographs, drawings and diagrams of all manner of related subjects. There is even occasional political discussion of the difficulties of the age.

Any of these specifics can be found using the search box, including information about famous individuals and successful shooters of the time.

This document is in the form of a text-searchable flip-page document that may take a few moments to load.

N.B. The search magnifier may need to be clicked twice.

For the benefit of readers, we have developed a listing of articles and advertisements

that relate somewhat to subjects covered by this website.

But the search facility of each flip-book is still the more selective route to your interests.
