(A) A STRANGE PERCUSSION ENFIELD CARBINE.

(A) A STRANGE PERCUSSION ENFIELD CARBINE. This is an Enfield carbine that has been modified in the Japanese aesthetic, but lacks Meiji registration marks and some unusual modifications. Barrel has been shortened to 21 - 1/4" and fit with a Japanese style sighting system with barleycorn front sight and V notch rear sight, and is fit with two barrel bands. Ramrod has been shortened to an appropriate length and feeds into a copper mouth. Lock is devoid of any visible markings and is incised with double lines about the perimeter. Saddle ring staple retained by a pair of sidenails. Nipple accented by a sheet metal nipple cover. Oversized trigger with a brass trigger plate. Shortened and recontoured stock with a hole drilled through the wrist and reinforced with a five petal floral, and marked with two upside down kanji-style markings at the butt. CONDITION: Metal is essentially a smooth patina throughout, with some fine oxidation around the nipple, and some areas of rubs to dove grey. Stock with scattered handling marks, impressions, and grain separations throughout, with evidence of original hardware still visible. Mechanically fine, bore with expected oxidation.
