In the long peace that has brooded over
the world the limit of Improvement in
military small arms would appear to have
been reached. 1t remains now to try them
on living human bodies instead of upon
cadavers. which cannot shoot back. In
scientific parlance, I'VE have reached an
equation in the proportions of mass in
the rife and the projectile in caliber,
rifiing and twist in the sectional density
of the bullet and in the power of the ex-
plosives. Beyond this any possible i'm
provement would be ineffective for the
reason that to exceed the present lir'its
would be to exceed the muscular nd
