Imagine my chagrin when this morning I discovered that on the cover photo of this Fall Issue I had misidentified Craig Larter's CHE as a ten-guage gun when it is in fact a twelve-gauge.

My most humble apologies to Craig Larter and to our readership.

Got mine today and I never would have even noticed that Larter's CHE was labeled as a 10 gauge. I bet Craig WISHES it was a 10 gauge!!
Great issue again Dean-o.

Dean,

At least you did not identify it as an L.C. Smith as the American Rifleman did to the Parker in the L.C. Smith story. The gauge does not matter. Being an editor is an almost impossible job, because striving for perfection will drive one crazy after you discover something you should have caught. It is never a big deal, it happens. Thanks for the good work! (Still waiting for my copy.)
