He is currently an author and firearms consultant and he also lectures at local Great War museums.
He is the author of a number of books including The Military Sniper since 1914 (Osprey, 2001), Firearms in the American West 1700-1900 (The Crowood Press, 2002), and the highly acclaimed Out of Nowhere: A History of the Military Sniper (Osprey, 2004).

Paperback. Zustand: New. Stacey, Mark; Gilliland, Alan (illustrator). In 1836, Samuel Colt changed the face of warfare with the production of the first of a series of iconic and influential single-action revolvers, including the .44-calibre Colt Walker and the seminal .45-calibre Colt Single Action Army.These weapons shifted the role of the pistol from single-shot weapon of last resort to a practical and powerful sidearm that gave the user the ability to defend himself once his primary armament was discharged. It transformed cavalry tactics and relegated the sword to a largely ceremonial role in many armies.Featuring full-colour artwork, expert analysis and gripping first-hand accounts, this is the absorbing story of Colt's family of single-action revolvers, covering their origins, development, use and lasting impact on the modern world.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Stacey, Mark; Gilliland, Alan (illustrator). 1st Edition. 80 pages. Soft covers. In 1836, Samuel Colt changed the concept of the pistol forever with the introduction of the Paterson revolver. It was the first of a series of iconic and influential multi-shot , single-action pistols that included the massive .44-caliber Colt Walker and the seminal .45-caliber Colt Single Action Army, which remains in production today. These weapons elevated the role of the pistol from a last-resort, single-shot weapon to a practical and powerful sidearm that gave the user the ability to continue to defend himself once his musket or rifle was discharged. It transformed cavalry tactics and soon relegated the sword to a largely ceremonial role in most armies. Featuring full-color artwork, expert analysis, and gripping first-hand accounts, this is the absorbing story of Colt's family of single-action revolvers, covering their origins, development, use, and lasting impact on the modern world.
