ART IN ARMS PRESS CONTINUES TO GROW!
Available Now! The Matchless Enfield .303 No. 4 Mk I (T)!
The Matchless Enfield chronicles the development of WWII’s finest sniper rifle in the Enfield No. 4 Mk I (T) along with the rise of scouting and sniping (again) in the British army. The lessons, first learned the hard way in the American Revolution, seemingly got mislaid between the various crises, yet somehow the Empire not only prevailed but excelled, and WWII saw it all come back together in the Scout/Sniper teams. The book contains a complete review of an original rifle and its performance. Tips on shooting and handloading are included. Available for $19.99 at Amazon! Read sample chapters below in The Occasional Gazette! See a preview of the photos in the Historical Arms Gallery (click here to be whisked there now)!

FG42 is No. 1 in the series of new Illustrated Books
The new 2nd edition has been updated to include the SMG Type I with a new series of photos and a full review including shooting and handloading. WWII Germany’s innovative FG42 was a technological breakthrough taking the primary infantry rifle from a slow-firing pre-1900 bolt-action rifle to an ultra-fast machine rifle capable of spitting out 900 rounds per minute. Too few and too late to help in WWII, the battlefield superiority the FG42 offered was lost on post-war arms designers who ignored its many valuable lessons. Included is an in-depth review of the SMG Guns semi-auto replica of this remarkable rifle in its original 7.92x57mm. FG42 features 60+ color and 5 b&w period photos.The book is currently available at Amazon. See a preview of the photography in the FG42 Gallery (click here) on the Historical Arms page, and read Sample Chapters from FG42 in The Occasional Gazette (click the photo to read now!). the 1st Edition of FG42 is still $17.95! The price of the 2nd Edition will be slightly higher with many more photos and pages.

No. 2 in a Brand New Concept for Visual eBooks
The sky above us is populated with fanciful creatures living in the clouds however briefly as created and sculpted by the wind. “Critters in the Clouds” is a 20-page Kindle “Graphic Novel” eBook (or Kindle Komic, if you will) chronicling some the strange creatures found crossing the Northern Nevada sky. The pictures are big, the verbiage light in this visual treat. A new concept in eBooks, this is No. 2 in the Series and features 20+ photos and will look best on an iPad and similar color Tablets. Smart phone users may have a little trouble reading the captions, but it can be enlarged with a swipe of the fingers, or have fun just looking at the pictures and letting your imagination soar with the wind! Available at Amazon for $2.99. A novel Christmas e-stocking stuffer!
NEW WAYS TO ENJOY OUR BOOKS & PHOTOGRAPHY!
THE MATCHLESS ENFIELD FOR KINDLE!
Art In Arms Press is pleased to announce two new ways to enjoy our publications. THE MATCHLESS ENFIELD .303 No. 4 MK I (T) SNIPER is available in an abridged version for Kindle Readers with 18 photos. Buy it at Amazon!
THE MATCHLESS ENFIELD IN PICTURES!
New, and unique to Art In Arms Press is THE MATCHLESS ENFIELD .303 No. 4 MK I (T) SNIPER IN PICTURES. This version is just 19 full color and 5 period b&w photos presented with captions alone in a 20-page Graphic Novel optimized for Tablets and iPads. This version can be enjoyed on phones, too, and Kindle readers, but the photos look better in full color in the tablet format. We believe this novel approach (if you’ll pardon the pun) opens up the subject to folks looking for easy entertainment. We’ve all just thumbed through a magazine and looked at the pictures and read the captions, and you can do so with the THE MATCHLESS ENFIELD IN PICTURES. If the topic piques your interest, the Kindle version awaits, as does the book with all 81 photos. Buy it Amazon!
FG42 FOR KINDLE!
FG42, the first offering from Art In Arms Press about the fascinating WWII German Machine Rifle is available in an abridged version for Kindle, too! Buy it at Amazon! The FG42 e-version has fewer photos and lacks the fieldstrip instructions and handloading.

Critters in the Clouds
Sunsets and sunrises are especially beautiful here in Northern Nevada, and the winds do strange things to the clouds. See if you see what I see in Critter Clouds. The new crop of strange cloud fellows in 2021 has begun! The gent here has something in his hand! Is he looking forward or down? As always, these are as I photographed them and the only "photo editing" performed is a slight boost to contrast and color. Much beauty is to be seen in Sunsets. A new page is here in right below Sunsets 2021, and last years crop has is in Sunsets 2020. Past years are just below.

I never know exactly what I’ll find when I venture forth with the camera. Everyday is different and the same subject goes from “Gee, nice,” to “Wow!” as the sun crosses the sky. Nevada’s glorious sunrises, sunsets and the simple beauty of the garden are a daily delight. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I did taking them! And then there are the Oddities...

What would a website be without cats? After poor Squeakers passing (1994-2017), my neighbor's cat called regularly and we've become friends. Now that Twinkles has arrived, I fear she has declared the house Off Limits to other cats. Panzer is a bit put out he lost his indoor napping privileges, but Twinkles is a dear, and this is now HER house.

The Nature section is just for fun, and chronicle the times I happen to be looking in the right direction at the right time with the camera on and in my hand. Enjoy the sunrises, sunsets, moonsets, flowers, blossoms, birds and animals. I see things in clouds, too, and remember some friends wondering if I was crazy. See if you see what I saw in "Critter Clouds." Some I've shown these to have seen other things! Don't peek at the captions before deciding. Oddities contains other, well, odd things.
