The Martini-Henry Prison Warder Musket is a specialised variant of the iconic .577/450 Martini-Henry rifle, specifically adapted for use by prison guards, convict gang warders and colonial police forces in the British Empire.
These weapons were typically developed to provide security forces with a reliable, deterrent firearm that was often chambered in unique or less lethal calibers to prevent stolen weapons or ammunition from being used effectively against authorities.
This rifle is in excellent condition with a 2 piece wooden stock, steel mounts & original steel cleaning rod.
It has expected pitting to the metal parts and some minor knocks to the wooden parts.
The photographs are of the actual item and form part of the description.
Please examine the photographs carefully and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
Chambered in an obsolete calibre it can be owned live without any form of license.
Sold as a collectors piece only.
