Here's a challenge for the Cavalry buffs ...
the current issue of Man At Arms/Gun Collector magazine has a clear photo of a mounted horse soldier, sabre drawn, sitting erect in the saddle. Even the horse is posing!
He is wearing the low riding, swivelling holster for the 1911, leggings, gauntlets, etc.
Editor Stuart Mowbray is offering a prize if you can correctly identify and name all weapons and horsey accoutrement in the photo.
I'd post the pic, but I'm a techno-illiterate.
