When the British Board of Ordnance appointed a Select Committee in 1864 the Snider system was swiftly adopted with the first breech loaders being issued in 1865 to British forces. Improved in 1867 by the use of Colonel Boxer's center fire brass bodied cartridge, the rifle was used very effectively in the Abyssinian Campaign of 1868. The system utilized a hinged breech block with an internal firing pin assembly that permitted the use of a self contained cartridge of lead bullet in cardboard, and, after 1867, brass casing. This highly efficient conversion system prolonged the active life of the P-1853 rifles up until 1871 when the Martini System was adopted. Snider rifles saw continued use throughout the Empire but were officially obsoleted by the late 1880s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese examples are complete and all original, each has the following features; 39\" barrel with the signatures three steel bands, brass trigger guard, cleaning rod, functioning lock with nipple, adjustable ladder-back sight, and brass butt plate.

In 1840 the HEIC began producing the world's very first massed produced percussion muskets one of which later became known as the EIC Model \"F\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA brief history of how this model came to being- The shortened 39\" barrel Brown Bess musket was first developed and adopted by the EIC in 1771. This was a full 25 years before the Board of Ordnance in London followed suit with a 39\" Brown Bess Musket dubbed the \"India Pattern\" in 1796. This is a testament that private enterprise has seemingly always got things done long before government bureaucrats. In 1839 the British Government officially adopted a converted to percussion Brown Bess musket (P-1796\/39) but in the Great Fire of the Tower of London of 1841 over 400,000 of these converted Muskets were destroyed leaving the British Government very short handed. The result, once again, was to copy the current EIC Percussion Musket, the Model \"F\" and designate it the \"Lovell's Pattern of 1842\". By that time, the EIC had already developed and refined the .75 bore Percussion musket through six models- A to F.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIMA is proud to offer original British manufactured EIC Model \"F\" Muskets, again in .75 bore and with 39\" standard length barrel. Models A and B were EIC flintlock muskets converted to percussion. However, the Model F was purpose built percussion issue. This Pattern dispensed with the screw on breech (needed because of the unreliability of the brazed on nipple lumps) as improved technology now permitted the welding of the nipple lump directly to the side of the breech. The nipple lump changes shape to fit what was then called the \"new style lock\". The lock was of the new percussion type with the mainspring no longer screwed in at its small end but secured under a lip inside the lock plate. The trigger is hung in a box, part of the trigger plate, instead of on a pin in the wood, and the side plate disappeared in favor of the later side nail cups with new Pattern F bayonet catch. These were built or \"set up\" between 1845 and 1851.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe differences between the various EIC Models are generally minor; Model A and B were Brown Bess flintlock conversions, Model C and D were purpose built percussion muskets but had the \"Old Series\" side locks with differing trigger guard styles, while the Model E and F both had the \"new series\" side locks and had either the Hanoverian Catch on the Model E or the EIC bayonet catch on the Model F.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease See David Harding's stellar work \"\u003cem\u003eSmallarms of the East India Company 1600-1856\u003c\/em\u003e\" published in four volumes by Foresight Books in 1997.

It is a symbolic weapon of the Nepalese Army, and of all Gurkha regiments throughout the world. It is a part of the regimental weaponry and heraldry of the Royal Gurkha Rifles, and is used in many traditional rituals among different ethnic groups of Nepal, including one where the groom wears one during the wedding ceremony. It is known to many people as simply the \"Gurkha blade\" or \"Gurkha knife\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pronunciation \"kukri\" is of Western origin, as the Nepalese people to whom this weapon belongs pronounce it with three syllables - \"khukuri.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe oldest known kukris are in the National Museum in Kathmandu, Nepal that belonged to Drabya Shah, circa 1559. The kukri came to be known to the Western world when the East India Company came into conflict with the growing Gurkha Empire, culminating in the Gurkha War of 1814–1816. It gained literary attention in the 1897 novel Dracula by Irish author Bram Stoker. Despite the popular image of Dracula having a stake driven through his heart at the conclusion of a climactic battle between Dracula's bodyguards and the heroes, Mina's narrative describes his throat being sliced through by Jonathan Harker's kukri and his heart pierced by Quincey Morris' Bowie knife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Gurkha troops are issued with a kukri; in modern times members of the Brigade of Gurkhas receive training in its use. The kukri gained fame in the Gurkha War for its effectiveness. Its continued use through both World War I and World War II enhanced its reputation among both Allied troops and enemy forces. Its acclaim was demonstrated in North Africa by one unit's situation report. It reads: \"Enemy losses: ten killed, ours nil. Ammunition expenditure nil.\" Elsewhere during the Second World War, the kukri was purchased and used by other British, Commonwealth and US troops training in India, including the Chindits and Merrill's Marauders. The notion of the Gurkha with his kukri carried on through to the Falklands War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn September 2, 2010, Bishnu Shrestha, a retired Indian Army Gorkha soldier, alone and armed only with a kukri, defeated 40 bandits who attacked a passenger train he was on in India.

The defence of the mission station of Rorke's Drift, under the command of Lieutenant John Chard of the Royal Engineers, and Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead immediately followed the British Army's defeat at the Battle of Isandlwana on 22 January 1879, and continued into the following day, 23 January.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust over 150 British and colonial troops successfully defended the garrison against an intense assault by 3,000 to 4,000 Zulu warriors. The massive, but piecemeal, Zulu attacks on Rorke's Drift came very close to defeating the tiny garrison but were ultimately repelled. Eleven Victoria Crosses were awarded to the defenders, along with a number of other decorations and honours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRorke's Drift was a small missionary post garrisoned by a company of the 2\/24th Foot, native levies and others under the command of Lieutenant Chard, Royal Engineers, the most senior officer of the 24th present being Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead. Two Boer cavalry officers, Lieutenants Adendorff and Vane, arrived to inform the garrison of the defeat at Isandhlwana. The Acting Assistant Commissary James Langley Dalton persuaded Bromhead and Chard to stay and the small garrison frantically prepared rudimentary fortifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Zulus first attacked at 4:30 pm. Throughout the day the garrison was attacked from all sides, including rifle fire from the heights above the garrison, and bitter hand-to-hand fighting often ensued. At one point the Zulus entered the hospital, which was stoutly defended by the wounded inside until it was set alight and eventually burnt down. The battle raged on into the early hours of 23 January but by dawn the Zulu Army had withdrawn. Lord Chelmsford and a column of British troops arrived soon afterwards. The garrison had suffered 15 killed during the battle (two died later) and 11 defenders were awarded the Victoria Cross for their distinguished defense of the post, 7 going to soldiers of the 24th Foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLearn more here- https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Battle_of_Rorke's_Drift\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Made Items","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":26168090757,"sku":"ABB1124","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1524\/1342\/products\/abb1124__1.jpg?v=1628377951"},{"product_id":"british-enfield-m-2a-mk3-bayonet-scabbard-12-inches","title":"British Enfield M-2A Mk3 Bayonet Scabbard- 12 Inches","description":"\u003cp\u003eNew Made Item: Steel mounted leather 12 inch scabbards for the .308 Cal.

Well, now we have an answer! Developed by Master gunsmith and restorer Dennis Duval, IMA is proud to offer, for the very first time, a complete restoration kit ideally suited to cleaning, restoring and caring for our numerous Antique rifles and Muskets, especially our line of \"untouched\" guns. This kit is designed to restore your gun without destroying the original finish of the stock, patina of the steel, or the lure of the brass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery kit is intended to restore one antique long gun, and is comprised of these 10 separate components:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Liquid Soap Concentrate- (Potassium Methyl Cyclohexy Oleate): Alkaline soap is a non-acid, non-corrosive, non-hazardous, germicidal cleaner for practically everything from paper to stone. Compared with harsh acid based cleaners, soap is not harmful to health or property. Soap attacks and emulsifies dirt, mineral oils, fatty oils, waxes and hydrocarbons. A final rinse or wipe with clean water neutralizes the surface. Soap is supplied as a dense concentrate and MUST be diluted before use. For normal aqueous cleaning: one part soap to six parts tap water (by Volume) is sufficient. As a spirit soap, one part soap in ten-twenty parts solvent will be effective. As Soap is a highly effective de-greaser hands should be protected against the loss o natural oils by wearing gloves (provided in kit). Eyes should also be protected from splashing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Surface Cleaner \u0026amp; Polish- Gently abrasive paste for non-scratch cleaning of metals. Formulation is based on blended Neuberg silica chalks in a water\/white spirit emulsion. Under normal use, the product is not a health hazard. cleaning\/burnishing action is achieved with extremely fine control using a soft rag and soft\/moderate pressure. After a few minutes of air-drying, residual chalky deposit is easily wiped away with a clean rag, leaving surfaces dry and silk-smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Wax Polish- Micro-crystalline wax\/polish ultra refined waxes blended to a formula approved for and used by the British Museum and fine art restores internationally. It conifers a highly efficient moisture resistance. When thinly applied and rubbed out to the full luster, the wax film is, and remains, glass-clear with no discoloration either to the wax or underlying surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Pen Oiler- Mineral oil blended penetrating oil with extra handy applicator tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Wood Treatment Oils- A unique blend of natural emollients of boiled linseed oil, oleoresins, and wood preservers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 0000 Steel Wool\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 00 Steel Wool\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 1 Small Copper Plate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 1 Pair EX-Large Latex Gloves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Detailed Restoration Instruction Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit will get you 90% of the way to a cleaned and fine antique gun, but a few other materials might be needed depending on the job.
