Martini Henry Purchase

[Medalnet]

At last !!! Living in South Africa and being close to the KwaZulu-Natal Battlefields, I finally got myself a deactivated Martini Henry. Unfortunately, although its stopping power is legend and they used them during the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879, I don't know much more. I have attached a few photos of the markings and symbols and i was hoping that the few experts out there might be able to shed some light on this particular lethal rifle. Appreciated Richard from Durban, South Africa.
