Rare Canadian issued Enfield Snider MKII** long rifle, chambered in .577.
As Canada was part of the Commonwealth they to were issued with the Snider.
The initials "DC" indicate it was issued to Dominion of Canada.
The lock was manufactured by BSA .
The wood work is marked with Enfield roundal with WD /I\ with a 1 for 1st class rifle.
This would indicate that this rifle was converted from a MKI to a MKII** .
As a general rule any weapons that Britain issued to non British forces would not
be a latest or current one.
This meant that British soldiers always had a slight advantage having better and
newer weaponry should they ever be used against them.
The overall condition is excellent and action is still tight and crisp. Canadian issued Snider's are rarely encountered in the UK as most remained in Canada.
Condition is superb for its age - all wood is intact - I would estimate a 8/10 condition.
Reserve is only $550.....
The Snider–Enfield was produced in several variants.
The most commonly encountered variants were the Rifled Musket or Long Rifle, the
Short Rifle, and the Cavalry and Artillery Carbines.
The Long Rifle (Which this one is ) has a 36+1â„2-inch (93 cm) barrel and three barrel bands.
Its total length (without bayonet) is 54+1â„4 inches (138 cm) in length.
It was issued to line infantry and has three-groove rifling with one turn in 78 inches
(200 cm).
The Snider–Enfield used a new type of metal-cased cartridge called a Boxer cartridge
after its designer.
The breech block housed a diagonally downward sloping firing pin struck with a front
-action lock mounted hammer. To operate the weapon, the rifleman cocked the
hammer, flipped the block out of the receiver to the right by grasping the left
mounted breech block lever, and then pulled the block back to extract the spent
case.
There was no ejector, so the firer turned the rifle to the right and upside-down to
allow the case to drop out.
