Yessir, McBride went over with the Canucks
and they used the JMB-designed 1895 Colt machinegun.
I re-read that book at least once a year. Top-notch.

I am in the reread camp.
That is one of the books I can retrieve from the cloud.

Who would have thunk it.

My cabin at the farm is non-electric. After dark, the only light is the dim glow from my Kindle screen as I'm rooting through my cloud collection for something to read.
