Weapons Today
Surrounded by the sounds of heavy machinery, a worker ensures parts are kept to standard as M4 rifles are produced around him. In the modern world, the era of mass manufacure has replaced individual craftsmen. Does that mean weapons can no longer tell us about those who made them?
Historians of the future will look back on the present day and analyze us by all our digital and written records. Some will undoubtedly study our objects. Until then, can we analyze current cultures by looking at our weapons? Or are we not far enough removed to see without bias?
