@JSLegoMaster its like it infact the trapdoor was also a conversion when it first came out thay converted muzzleloaders but thay had to reline the barrels to .50-70 and then in the .45-70

@fishblade2 no replicas of the snider rifle only real deals the ones at IMA are made in nepal although thay do follow the mk 3 type breech block witch is a bit stronger theres always the chance of getting a non shooter (ie somethings wrong with it) when buying a untouched gun

This is very simlar working as the Trapdoor rifle, only difference beeing that this opens at the side, trapdoor up front.

It is the British Army's first metallic cartridge rifle from the 1800's. The first ones were factory conversions of the muzzle-loading Enfield rifled musket that our own CSA smuggled in in large numbers from Britain in the Civil War.
The Snider was a stopgap measure that was soon replaced by the Martini-Henry rifle.

@ClaudiaSnider what about the replica. How exactly do you spell this?

Do the brass shells just use a shot gun primer?

FYI: I've seen several over the years that have split at the breech half way between mouth of chamber and back of receiver. I have some custom factory rounds $6/each. What size ball w/ 28ga load? .577 (like for a .58cal Enfield, Zouve or Springfield) Also do you use a filler? Thx

@cleoshepardchou I seldom shoot the 28/24ga loads anymore. I custom make my own rounds from magtech 24ga Brass. I use 85gr powder and a newsprint wad. The only Snider's I have ever heard of having a failure is the Mark1 and MarkII (probably due to the Iron barrel) I have a Mark III (steel barrel)
