Hey Ed,

I think I may have picked it up at Reno, but just cannot be sure...might have also gotten it at Krause' shop...but I am drawing a blank.

It is a small booklet, with its 1st. page number starting at 83 (oddly) and runs through 116. This is followed by 9 pages (un-numbered) with the photographic plates of 9 out of 10 of the Trial guns...

I am guessing it is a xerox copy of an original report...as the font on the pages varies quite often in the text of the Report...as various letters and documents may have come in and been assembled as part of the Report.

A publisher's note on the cover of the opening page states :

" Published as a reference material 1969, James C. Tillinghast, Box 595, Marlow, NH, 03456 "

p.s. The 1st. M. Reese book you mentioned covered the US Trials of the 1,000 M1900 AE lugers in 7,65 cal. This Report covers the "other" Trials...the 1907 Trials of various .45 cal pistols (both semiauto and revolvers)...

Regards,

Pete.. <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
