    Martini-Henry Mark 1 questions

    I have a .577/.450 Mark I model Martini-Henry Rifle. It is missing the correct Butt sling swivel, the correct Cleaning Rod, and the bronze breech block pin is a reproduction (to replace a 'home-made' steel replacement). Is the correct Butt swivel identical to screw-in butt swivels that were used on some Enfield muzzle-loaders and Sniders? Could someone provide a photo of an original Bronze breech-block hinge pin? Does the groove for the pin retaining or 'lock' screw go completely around the Bronze pin or just part way?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.
