G.H. DAW & Co. Antique SNIDER-ENFIELD .577mm Caliber Breech Loading Rifle
CONVERSION of a Pattern 1853 Enfield
Description: G.H. DAW & Co. Antique SNIDER-ENFIELD .577mm Caliber Breech Loading Rifle CONVERSION of a Pattern 1853 Enfield Here we present an antique British G.H. Daw & Company Snider Enfield Short Rifle, originally made in 1860 before being updated via the Snider system circa 1870. American inventor Jacob Snider designed the conversion for rifle-muskets to be turned into breech-loading firearms. Britain had used the Enfield Pattern 1853 rifle-musket for a decade when breech-loaders came on the scene. Many of the major powers at the time faced a similar problem in that their arms suddenly became obsolete, and not wanting to throw over all their small arms at once, they converted them with this system. The Snider went through three “Marks” and sub-variations. The Mark I and Mark II were conversions from existing rifle-muskets, while the Mark IIIs, which were made in far larger numbers, came about when existing stores of suitable 1853s and 1861s ran out. This example is marked “Crown/VR” and G.H. Daw & Co” marked lock and “1860” dated left of the breech. Included is a U.S. Armed Forces affidavit “Bring Back” paper from Bagram, Afghanistan dated August 29, 2016. The overall condition is good. Strong action with both cocking positions. Good bore for its age. A few repairs can be seen around the wrist on the otherwise well-used, solid stock. Legible markings. Here is a very neat rifle that would have been the British counterpart to the U.S. trapdoor rifle. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 30-1/2 inches. Caliber: .577 Snider Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1350 #226980 SOLD Antique: Yes |
