Publications available from ASAC

We have compiled the best of the papers presented by researchers at ASAC meetings into three separate volumes. These deal with Longarms, Handguns and Swords. They are an excellent source of information on specific topics, often in greater detail than can be found in any other published sources. These are highly recommended reference books for the serious arms collector.
