The location is Plattsburgh Barracks, near Lake Champlain (a good lake, but, not a Great Lake), N.Y.
Uniforms and rifles had changed, but, the Range Firing-Line, target butts, and cleaning routine were likely similar in the Krag Era.
These aspects of military life were not commonly photographed. I thought they were worth sharing.
I'm surprised some of the 'marksmen' were not 'chewed-out' and were allowed to violate the Firing-Line. (There's a leg and some arms across the line).
I like the 'cleaning bench' and the 'scorer's benches'.
