EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of 19th-century military breech action firearms, each with its own unique design and historical significance. From left to right, we have the Martini-Henry rifle, the Lee-Metford British magazine rifle, the Gras rifle, the Mauser rifle, and finally the Mannlicher firearm. These small arms were essential tools for armies during this era. The Martini-Henry was widely used by the British army and gained fame in various conflicts around the world. The Lee-Metford British magazine rifle introduced a revolutionary magazine system that allowed for rapid fire capabilities on the battlefield. The Gras rifle represents French ingenuity in weapon design with its innovative breech-loading mechanism. Meanwhile, the Mauser and Mannlicher rifles showcase German and Austrian craftsmanship respectively. Published in 1890 as part of The National Encyclopaedia series, this print offers a glimpse into an era when these firearms played a crucial role in shaping military strategies and tactics worldwide. Ken Welsh's expertise shines through in capturing not only these remarkable weapons but also their historical context. This image serves as a reminder of how far weaponry has evolved since then while highlighting their enduring appeal to collectors and enthusiasts alike.
