Anyone else here get the November American Rifleman ? There is a good article on the history of the trapdoor Springfield. At the end of the article in a section titled 1886 Experimental there is mention of limited variants and there the Marksmans rifle is mentioned. Some of you might remember a short time back I mentioned that I thought because of the uniqueness of my rifle that it may be one of those most rare variants. There is no elaboration on the subject just the bare mention of it.
They give a web address to an American Rifleman site to see more variants but when I use the address I get to the American rifleman site but it says the page I request does not exist. This is not the first mention of the marksman's rifle that I have heard but so far that is all I can find just the mention of it with no real factual evidence.
I was really hoping to see a picture in the American Rifleman collection that might help indicate what I have so the site does not exist message was a disappointment.
