Enfield 2 Band P1858 S220

Enfield 2 Band P1858 S220
Taking into consideration the need to equip with a long gun also other corps or regiments other than the infantry corps, led to the “Short Rifle” models. At the beginning the P1853 was simply shortened, but within few years the guns’ models got adequate to the different military exigencies and it was then introduced the Naval P1858 model.

The barrel is fixed by two steel bands and is equipped with a straight rear sight with a slider assembled on a base with steps. Except for the steel barrel bands, the garnitures are made of brass.
The ramrod tip is shaped with the characteristic jag slot.

The gun is equipped with two sling swivels, one under the front band and the other one in front of the trigger guard. The stock is made of walnut.
