	Book Review
		The little MiG-21 would have had a hard job carrying the claimed "one 37-mm cannon in the nose and a 30-mm cannon in the along the fuselage" (sic) when the standard gun armament was of course the neat little twin-barrelled GSh-23.
		The American Armament Company is described as the "prime producer of cannons when the seeds of World War II were being sown in the late 1930s" but the only thing that AAC was good at was publicity; their guns were technical failures never adopted by the USA.
		The P-38 did not have a "23mm Madsen cannon" (it was considered but rejected), and the statement that the P-36F had a 23mm gun under each wing is misleading; one XP-36F was temporarily fitted with them for trial purposes.

	The Model 1939
		The M39 was a very important rifle to Finland and served the Finnish nation for a number of years and as such there are a number of variations one can come across.
		The m/39 was thicker and stronger due to the placement of the barrel band for the stock.
		The bayonet lug is designed to allow the use of the new m/39 bayonet that is reminiscent of a fighting knife or "pukko" as well as all previous versions of Finnish designed knife type bayonets such as the m/27, m/28, m/28-30 and m/35.

	Top Literature - Revolver cannon
		Automatic revolver cannons were developed by Mauser late in WW2 as aircraft guns, and have since been produced by many different European manufacturers (whereas the US, and to a lesser extent Russia, favour the Gatling gun).
		The archetypal revolver cannon is the Mauser MK 213, from which almost all current weapons are derived.
		The Hotchkiss Revolving Cannon of the late 1800s was not a revolver cannon in the modern sense, being of a Gatling type.

	Science Fair Projects - M39 cannon
		The Pontiac M39 was a 20mm revolver cannon developed for the United States Air Force in the late 1940s.
		The M39 was developed by the Springfield Armory, based on the World War II-era design of the German Mauser MG 213C, a 30 mm cannon developed for the Luftwaffe, but not used in combat.
		The M39 is not the same as the Hispano M3 derivatives used by the Navy (as the M3 and the later Colt Mk 12 cannon) on aircraft like the A-4 Skyhawk and F-8 Crusader, nor the Hispano-derived M24 used by some USAF aircraft of the late 1940s.

	Hispano-Suiza HS.404 Information
		This cannon was based on the earlier Swiss Oerlikon FF S weapons, which Hispano-Suiza manufactured under license HS.7 and HS.9.
		In the post-war era the HS.404 disappeared fairly quickly due to the introduction of revolver cannon based on the German Mauser MG 213.
		The USAF introduced the 20 mm M39 revolver cannon to replace the M24, while the Navy instead stuck with the original design with a lighter round for better muzzle velocity in the Colt Mk 12 cannon.

	CANNON OR MACHINE GUN
		The theory was that solid bullets or AP cannon shells relied on hitting the relatively small vital areas to have an effect, whereas an HE shell could cause serious damage regardless of where it struck.
		The 20 mm cannon shells were not only two to three times heavier than HMG bullets, but their HEI contents greatly increased their effectiveness.
		The cannon's advantages are clearly shown in the decisions made as a result of combat experience by air forces with a choice of good HMGs and cannon.

	AA Auction 7583726 (Ended 09/03/2006, 13:22:37 PST) Finnish Sako M39, Antique Mosin No FFL Required
		In my opinion the M39 has a better action than the German Mauser K98, better sights than our 1903 Springfield, more rugged than Britains SMLE Enfield, and were the best Military bolt action rifle produced during World War 2.
		This particular M39 has a 1896 Sestroryetsk Arsenal marked receiver tang and is therefore an antique.
		It is free from the excessive dings and scrapes that are normally associated with Military Surplus Rifles, and is actually a beautiful stock that would rate in Fine condition if it were not for the previously mentioned blemishes.
