The M3 Grease Gun by Leroy Thompson

In Korea and Vietnam, reconnaissance troops and special-operations forces were at times armed with the M3A1 also available in a suppressed version - and it was the first SMG issued to the US counter terrorist unit Delta Force. Featuring artwork, first-hand accounts and archive and close-up photographs, this is the story of the M3 sub machine gun.

Leroy Thompson has trained and advised military and police special-operations units around the world, focusing especially on the tactical use of firearms. He has had more than 45 books published and appeared as a weapons expert on TV.

Adam Hook studied graphic design, and began his work as an illustrator in 1983. He specializes in detailed historical reconstructions, and has illustrated Osprey titles on diverse subject.

Alan Gilliland, a contributor to more than 70 Osprey titles, notably in the Weapon series, writes, illustrates and publishes fiction (www.ravensquill.com), as well as illustrating for a variety of publishers (alangillilandillustration.blogspot.com).
