Más información sobre el libro

This illustrated history of Zbrojovka Brno is the account of an Austro-Hungarian arsenal that became one of the worlds's most successful arms manufacturer between the two World Wars. One of the keys to its success was the early introduction of interchangeable parts. In Europe Zbrojovka Brno was one of the first to adopt this 'American System of Manufacturing'. The name 'Brno Arms' turned into an umbrella trademark synonymous with quality firearms. Apart from famous weapons, like the Bren machine gun, the Czechoslovak manufacturer also designed and produced a wide range of other successful products, from machine tools, cars and typewriters to tractors.
