CALIBER OF ORDN
What is the significance of the

; those mysterious letters and numerals
mean ?
i Replying to, several inquiries of
1-this- sm t -received -by?the?Commanding
Oflicer ol' Augusta Arsenal,
Col. Ci. S. Lavin, explained
to-day that a caliber is the unit
ol ineasurementr-of the- mside^-diameter
of the barrel or bore of a
pistol, riHIe or cannon.
'1 he calibers of the pistols and
jiries which the Ordnance Depart

inc.otntally, Loi. bavin said, it
is" toriect to write "a caliber .bu

any weapon of a calibei oi" aii^

changes were made in tin? gun.
1 he first change was indicated V?y
"A 1"and the second, the gun's
. present status, "A 2".
j Filtering the artillery field, the
picture becomes a bit more confusing.
First of .all, the term
"Caliber" may be -v^ed as a unit
in expressing the length of a g-ni.
For example, a 12 incni 50-caimei
