Description:
An English 1853 Enfield rifle , and dated 1864, given over to native use as it has a 33" barrel changed ro a smooth bore of about .550" or caliber. The barrel has all the proofs, and the lock is dated 1864, ENFIELD and VR. When guns taken out of service and given to native peoples, they had a barrel of smooth bore, as natives they weren't allowed to have a center fire cartridge rifled barrel. A very colorful gun with mutiple stock repairs done over time as seen in photos, the left side between lock screws, behind the lock end, under the lock plate. Comes with the ram rod, and an old sling that has repairs. The stock is English walnut. Interestingly the native made barrel is Damascus made, with correct front and rear sight. When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith  before  shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost.   We don’t have a web  site .I prefer money orders or a check.  Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns  affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of  older guns If you attempt to buy,  you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed.  Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only.  I’m easy to get along with. Thank You
