Original British P-1879 Martini-Henry MkIII Private Purchase Rifle by London Small Arms - dated 1883 U.S. Flags 3rd Motorized Artillery RegimentOriginal Item: Only One Available. Now this is something that we have never had before! Here we have an excellent British Martini Henry MkIII rifle made by the London Small Arms Company in 1883. This was not part of the Nepal purchase, and actually it looks to be a rare "private purchase" example, which does not have any military issue markings on it. Instead it just has the maker marking and logo on the receiver over the date: (LSA LOGO) L. S. A. Co.
