[edit] History

Arthur Corbin Gould, an avid shooter and member of the Massachusetts Rifle Association, published The Rifle in 1885. The Rifle was the forerunner to the NRA's The Rifleman, later American Rifleman. Gould later authored Modern American pistol and revolver, including a description of modern pistols and revolvers of American make; ammunition used in these arms; results accomplished; and shooting rules followed by American marksmen as well as Modern American Rifles.
