I am not a fan of iron mounted Kentucky rifles.
But the Tileston is a dandy and I really like it.

Thanks Roger!   The great rifles in the article sort of speak for themselves - yours included.  The photographers who contributed and David Wright's layout really make the article.

My first choice has always been "Iron"hardware with silver a close second and brass a very distant third,

 :)Vary good job on the Iron Mounted Guns Guy .I think it is the best issue yet. This time it was not centered on the Big three makers. Vary good job to all.
THANKS!
