Not far from my home , is where James Lee finished developing the 1878proto rifle . In this town of Wallaceburg Ontario Canada , there's a community museum with a small section about Lee and his rifle , which the Lee family donated to the community .
Here's a few picts I took...you'll have to excuse the quality the rifle is behind a glass case.
