Description:
ENFIELD MK III ISHAPORE .410 SHOT GUN
Quick, think of the first thing that comes to mind when I say “riot shotgun”!
Does it have a brass butt plate? A tangent rear sight? Is it a single-shot weapon? Does it use a shot shell smaller than 28ga?
No? Well, I guess you have a different idea of riot gear than the Indian military.
The Indian answer to the mass-issue riot gun, a SMLE rifle with the magazine well plugged and the barrel bored out to .410. They are pretty neat, and this one’s in really nice shape:
It has nice original timber work and bright bore, all proof marks are clear and sharp,
This hard to find original would complement any SMLE / military weapons collection
RFI, in India, converted a large number of MkIII rifles to single-shot .410 shot guns, These conversions were for issue to police and prison guards, to provide a firearm with a much-reduced power and range in comparison to the .303 cartridge. A further likely consideration was the difficulty of obtaining replacement ammunition in the event of the rifle's theft or the carrier's desertion.
Do your own due diligence and study the photos carefully as these form part of the description, if you’re looking at the ad, you know it’s rare, it won’t disappoint, any questions don’t hesitate to ask.
