STOCK#     Description


CONSIGNMENT #DNC  RARE! Afghan Kabul Arsenal made 3/4 length Martini Henry rifle in .303 British caliber.  Consigned for a friend currently serving in Afghanistan.  All assembly numbers match.  Well used but action remains tight.  No cleaning rod but no missing parts.  Defects to note are broken front sling swivel and a normal arsenal repair to the buttstock on top against the receiver.  Both are pictured in close ups.  These take the very rare Long Bladed Afghan made P1888 type bayonets.  At present I am fortunate to have one of these to offer in the Afghan Bayonet section of this website if you want to take advantage of the rare opportunity to add this rifle and bayonet to your collection.

10839 Italian M1871/87/16 Vetterli-Carcano Rifle.  WWI conversion of original M1871/87 Vetterli-Vitali 10.4mm rifle to accept 6.5mm Carcano ammunition and clips.  BRESCIA 1890.  Stock SN matches barrel.  ANTIQUE and may be mailed without regulation unless your State has local regulation of antiques.  International shipping is possible to certain countries but the length is an issue that prevents it from most international destinations.

$125



11003 U.S. Parris-Dunn MkI USN Dummy Training Rifle.  Fully marked on the butt plate "DUMMY TRAINING RIFLE" over "MARK 1-U.S.N." over "Parris-Dunn CORP." over "CLARINDA IOWA".  This one is missing the rear sight, both stacking swivel screws (swivel and mount are present) and the entire rear sling swivel assembly.  The stock has numerous hairline cracks and I believe it has been cracked and glued back together multiple times bit it is still solid and displays well.

$75



11004 U.S. Parris-Dunn MkI USN Dummy Training Rifle.  Fully marked on the butt plate "DUMMY TRAINING RIFLE" over "MARK 1-U.S.N." over "Parris-Dunn CORP." over "CLARINDA IOWA".  In good used condition with a few bumps and bruises to the stock but no cracks.  No missing parts at all and I believe the sling is also original but cannot state that with authority.

$200



11005 Swiss M1871 Vetterli Rifle  WAFFENFABRIK BERN.  .41 Swiss Rimfire caliber.

$225



11006 German/Turkish GEW1888/05 Commission Rifle DANZIG 1891.  Complete with cleaning rod and a fake sling.  Original GEW88 that was updated by the Germans beginning in 1905 to accept the standard 7.92mm "S" cartridge (what we call 8mm Mauser today).  The magazine well was reworked to accept cartridges directly from a standard 5 round stripper clip and a cover was installed on the open bottom.  Stripper clip guides were added to the receiver by means of pinning.  One repair in the forestock on the left side.  Only the bolt has Turkish markings.  Front band regimentally marked "25.R.6.81" and middle barrel band marked "1.G.R.R.4.45"

$250



11007 Dutch M1871/88 Beaumont-Vitali Rifle dated 1876.  One arsenal repair in the stock on the left side of the magazine inlet.  Probably got splintered when the rifle was inletted for the retrofit to the Vitali magazine system.
