Obsolete Calibre Snider .577 Calibre 3 Band Rifle with p. Webley and Son lock and British military stamps. In good condition, with full working parts, solid action, and excellent bore. The Snider was officially in use with British Empire Forces from 1866 until 1874 but was kept in actual service until the beginning of the twentieth century. It served with almost all the colonial armies of the time, all over the globe and there was at least one captured recently in Afghanistan. They were notoriously powerful and could easily kill a man or take a limb off at over a mile. Obsolete Calibre, no licence required.
