Martini Enfield Artillery Carbine MkII 1887 May Be Kyber Pass Copy 303 British..
Nice "Lever Action" Rolling block operation Rifle.. Overall conditrionis 7/10
Bluing is worn off and the usual age /use related marks are eveident - appears to
operate as it should. Caution should be used if modern ammo is used as it may not be
safe to shoot high pressure ammunition..
Due to a number of details on this rifle we are advised by a collector that this unit
may be a Kyber Pass manufacture.
A Khyber Pass copy is a firearm manufactured by cottage gunsmiths in the Khyber
Pass region in Pakistan.
The area has long had a reputation for producing unlicensed copies of firearms using
whatever materials are available; more often than not, railway rails, scrap motor
vehicles, and other scrap metal with basic hand tools.
The quality of such firearms varies widely, ranging from as good as a factory-produced
example to dangerously poor.
Mainly encountered Khyber Pass copies are of British military firearms, notably
Martini–Henry, Martini–Enfield, and Lee–Enfield rifles, although AK-47 rifles,
Webley Revolvers, Tokarev TT-33s, Colt M1911s and Browning Hi-Powers have
also been encountered. In the United States, a Kalashnikov-style rifle composed of
a mix of parts from various style AK rifles is sometimes referred to as a Khyber
Pass AK because, like Khyber guns, they are unlike any rifle produced by a factory
or issued by a regular military force.
Khyber Pass copy of a Martini Enfield MK11 cavalry carbine, captured from a Taliban
stockpile in 2001.
The Khyber Pass gunsmiths first acquired examples of the various British service
arms during nineteenth-century British military expeditions in the North-West
Frontier, which they used to make copies.
During World War II, some locally organised irregular forces were issued Khyber
Pass-made rifles – partly for financial reasons and partly because there was
concern the troops would steal their rifles and desert if issued higher-quality British
or Indian manufactured rifles.
Overall length is 38â€. The 21½†round barrel has a fair bore. The barrel has many
proof marks on both sides. One side of the action has two proof marks at the front.
The right side of the receiver is marked crown/ “V.R./ Enfield/ 1881and 11â€
The Martini–Henry is a breech-loading single-shot rifle with a lever action that was
used by the British Army. It first entered service in 1871, eventually replacing the
Snider–Enfield, a muzzle-loader converted to the cartridge system. Martini–Henry
variants were used throughout the British Empire for 47 years.
It combined the dropping-block action first developed by Henry O. Peabody
A reserve has been set of $500
