I found another thread with some info on the Canadian Calvary Carbine.


Canadian Lee Enfield Cavalry Carbine

Canada received 500 LMC's in 1895, they received 2,300 LEC's in 1896-7 and another 2,200 in one order and a final 300 in the second order in 1898-9. Some of these were issued to the NWMP. If you need to know the fine details just let me know. Best bet is to buy "Defending the Dominion, Canadian Military Rifles 1855-1955" by David Edgecombe

Maybe in the off topics forum? That one should bear it up OK.

Does anyone know what the "crown emblem" & VR stamped above the 1898 date represents?



I have been reading up on the MILSURPS Advisory Panel .... that is such a great idea/service!

I hope to get a bunch of better HD pics and submit it for review in the near future.
