Description
11/9/26 - For sale is an Enfield Mk IV Martini Henry made in 1887, chambered in .577/450. The rifle is in 70% condition; the finish has turned a darkened grey with hints of bluing, along with a brown hue from oxidation. The stock is in good condition overall, but there is a 1/4" crack behind the top of the receiver, and the forend has a chip about 3" in length missing along the cleaning rod channel behind the forward barrel band. The buttstock has the standard British unit markings and roundel, as well as some Nepalese markings. The bore is an 8/10, mostly bright with good rifling, but it is starting to darken. It comes with a canvas sling. A Victorian-era Enfield Mk IV Martini Henry with Nepalese markings, an honest example of a rifle that served the Empire.
