And if you look at the photo...it appears to have a tail?

My grandpa is 96 and sometimes he sends me issues of Rifleman when he's done with them. I hope he sends me this one.

Hi Pigeon, there's a simple solution to getting the American Rifleman, become an NRA member. If you love shooting, become a member.

BTW, there's little information on that 1851 not already available on the internet.

Regards,
Richard

Received my copy of the June issue of American Rifleman today and here is the page from the magazine on the London Colt (click on photo to enlarge):

My biggest concern is that when I pass away, my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them.
