"The Kentucky Rifle, for example, was a fine rifle, not the best, but it changed history."
"I never in my life saw better rifles (or men who shot better) than those made in America: they are chiefly made in Lancaster, and two or three neighbouring towns in that vicinity, in Pensylvania," Col. George Hanger, commander of light dragoons in Tarleton's British Legion in the Revolutionary War.
