ENDURING LEGACY:  The History of Firearms

(1992) Whether you call them guns, weapons, or firearms, they've been with us for centuries.

This excellantly detailed video traces the origin of one of the earliest firearms to sporting arms of today.

Learn how today's self-loading firearms evolved from a 'Matchlock' rifle which fired a bullet, only after the match was lit to ignite the powder.

From priceless museum collections to recreated chapters out of gun history, you will discover the fasinating evolution of firearms.

This video, together with a video transcript and teachers guide, will aid in a greater understanding and appreciation for the development and 'enduring legacy' of firearms.

Video Running time:  19 minutes
