Description:
Here we have a very unique little single shot rifle made by BSA in Australia. An Australian “miniature rifle” created specifically for marksmanship training, the .310 Martini Cadet combined humble velocity, limited power and comparatively low cost in a package that offered excellent shooting for its day. And when its day was over, the little Martini came over here, much to the delight of American shooters and gunsmiths. The Martini Cadet is a centrefire single-shot cadet rifle produced in the United Kingdom by BSA and W.W. Greener for the use of Australian military Cadets. Although considered a miniature version of the Martini–Henry, the internal mechanism was redesigned by Auguste Francotte to permit removal from the receiver as a single unit. Chambered for the .310 Cadet cartridge (aka: .310 Greener), it was used from 1891 to 1955. This particular example has some honest wear overall. The metal components have some high edge wear and thinning of the finish. The stock has some dinks and pressure marks and a few small chips on the left side of the top of the forend. Everything works as it should on this unique rifle. This would be a great addition to a collection.
