Ferguson Rifle

Stunning replica of the Ferguson Rifle. A superbly versatile gun, with an incredibly forward thinking concept behind it. Ferguson's screw breach. A genius concept that allowed the firer to re-load the rifle while prone, and took either a .68 or a .61 caliber ball.

A marvel of engineering, only 100 were ever made and after Ferguson's passing, the design was scrapped, partly due to the governments insistence on getting rid of anything they perceived to have lost them the war of independence. A crying shame, as this, alongside the Pattern 76 (see my other video) could outshoot any of its competitors at the time.
