Just purchased from a local customer, this lovely fully cleaned and restored rifle is 100% all British manufacture, starting life in 1864 as a . 577 caliber three band ENFIELD Percussion Rifle model of P 1853. It has the correct "Baddeley" type bands with a recessed screw, as would be used on the later Martini Henry rifles, and shows a lovely patina of age. It also shows some fantastic "flame figuring" in the stock,
