Osprey weapons series?
CWyatt
Hi
Is Osprey planning a new series on weapons? I saw on Amazon, an Osprey title called 'Browning .50 caliber Machine Guns (Weapon)' and another on the Thompson Submachine Gun and the Rocket Propelled Grenade. Any news on this? Thanks

My top 5 for the next five, if this potentially interesting series is happening, would be
1) The AK-47
2) The German MP40
3) The M-16/M4 (C7 & C8)
4) The FN FAL/SLR
5) The Bren machine gun

Yes! Later this year we are launching our new series WEAPON. There will be six titles released in 2010, the ones you mentioned, plus Katana, Medieval Handgonnes, and Sniper Rifles.
We are still working for the 2011 line-up, but I do know that AK-47 is a front-runner.

looking forward to the series. hope the series will feature the M1 Carbine and variants. since the Katana is covered, can we expect that in the future armour might also be covered?

It’s always exciting when Osprey releases a new series. All the above suggestions are excellent ones.
