U.S. Military Black Powder Metallic Cartridge Breech Loading Rifles

[Cowtown Scout]

I posted this thread over on the M14 forum last month and wanted to share it over here also. There are too many photos to try and recreate it so here is a link to that thread. https://www.m14forum.com/threads/u-s-military-black-powder-metallic-cartridge-breech-loading-rifles.546515/

I did a display and presentation for the American Society of Arms Collectors at our fall meeting in September this year. The linked thread has photos of the display that included 34 rifles as well as accroutements, and period photos. The first post also has an attached .pdf file of my power point presentation about the various arms trials, make sure you read it also.
