American Rifleman TV kicks off its season opener in West Hartford, Conn., with a visit to Colt’s Mfg. for a behind the scenes look at the iconic company's comeback.

 




For "Rifleman Review" we test the Springfield Armory EMP4, a scaled-down M1911 in 9 mm Luger.



Then for "I Have This Old Gun" we look at the British Boys Anti-Tank Rifles, a big bolt-action that was obsolete before World War II even broke out. Watch a video preview of tonight's episode.
