    97 riot gun,but not military

    I can't find any forums dealing with old railroad weapons so I thought I'd share pics here. Anybody else have pics of RR shotguns?

    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.

    Only RR weapon that comes to mind was a 22lr rifle that had its own wooden travelling box, which also contained a slot for a supressor (most likely a Maxim). Barrel threaded, front sight moved back. Apparently used for "pest" control.

    Did see an Iron foundry riot gun recently.

    I did a quick look and here is a neat RR history sight, but I only saw several shotguns and not a 97, but did not look at all of the sight. It is very interesting and worth a look at the history.

    Thanks Rob. I already checked out that sight, but didn't find any more pics of RR marked shotguns.
