Excerpt from New Methods of Machine-Gun Fire A study of this character will not bear casual reading, but must be made the object of thorough consideration and if possible an application of the principles discussed if the full benefit is to be derived from it. One of the most interesting features of this translation is the' method of regulating the extent of zone (or deep) fire by the use of a graduated scale on the hand wheel. 'so far as we are aware, no consideration has ever been given to this question in this country. While zone fire finds little application at the shorter ranges which are the rule in the use of machine guns in trench warfare, the longer ranges at which they will often be used in the war of movements will make necessary some method of compensating for errors in range, deficient observation, varia tions due to setting up of mount, etc. By the method described, a zone of the depth required in any given case to compensate for these factors can be covered with almost absolute uniformity. A valuable hint as to the method of training gun pointers is contained on pages 20 and 21 of the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
