The 5.56mm Timeline started out as a post in 1998, and wasn't published on The Gun Zone until 2001 or 2002. This pushed me to expand it further. The current version online is pushing close to 600 pages in MS Word, and will be closer to 700 pages once I get time to finish my next major update. By using a timeline format, I am able to maintain the relationship between multiple events that don't lend themselves to a narrative structure. I'd have to cut a lot of stuff out if I wanted a sequential narrative that flowed in a readable fashion. Chris: Actually, I had not seen your blog until you linked it.

Watters Thu, 25 Jun 2009 19:47:04 +0000 http://www.saysuncle.com/?p=26646#comment-223837 Thanks again for the link. The Gun Zone website belongs to former gunwriter Dean Speir. As such, the vast majority of the content is his own. However, he has graciously hosted articles by other authors such as myself. If he had not published the original version of my 5.56mm Timeline, it would have never grown to its current length. Thanks again for the link.
