Original Item: Found in katmandu Nepal in 2003. The P-1853 .577 Cal Percussion Rifle also known as the three Band Enfield; this popular and rare model is now available in ?AS IS? condition. Imported extensively for use in the U.S. Civil War. Each Rifle is offered totally ?AS FOUND?, or in ?AS IS? condition, completely un-cleaned and un-refurbished. The only service performed has been to ensure none are still loaded! Totally covered and caked with dried on grease, dirt and rust, these can be displayed as found or be the subject of winter nights of TLC to restore them to their former glory. All appear to be complete but no guarantees as to what use or damage may be found after more than 100 years of neglect and storage. These are the typical detailed photographs but no two will be alike. This is a very rare opportunity to own a significant piece of military history that greatly affected wars on three continents at a special discounted price.

Note: Some examples may have unattached parts such as; Butt Plate, Hammer, Trigger Guard, Steel Band, etc. However, we are looking carefully to make sure there is not catastrophic damage to any specific part or the wood stock. IMA will INCLUDE any signifigant missing parts for you to install. Signifigant parts do NOT include screws, pins, swivel hooks, etc...

Please remember, these are NOT perfect, but are truly untouched, and therefore; ?they are as they are?. For obvious reasons we cannot offer a Special Selection on this item.

Furthermore, REFUNDS are OK, but exchanges for a diffrent 1853 is not.
