SOLD SOLD (05/12) 1903 Siamese Military Type 46 (Aka Siamese Mauser Having German Mauser G98 / Japanese Arisaka Rifle Influence) 8 x 50mm Calibre Bolt Action Infantry Rifle**UK 2002 DEACTIVATION CERTIFICATED STRIPS, COCKS & DRY FIRES** Sn 18196:22 - 18196:22 Facing the threat of Western colonial expansionism in Southeast Asia during the later part of the 19th century, King Rama V of Siam (now Thailand), sought new weapons as part of a modernization program to ensure the kingdom's independence. After experiments with other rifles, the Siamese military decided on a Mauser type rifle based on the G98 design as their principle service rifle. Some features and characteristics of the Japanese Arisaka Type 35 rifle (under development in the same arsenal at that time) were also incorporated, such as the sliding dust cover and the rifles were designated the Type 46 rifle. Through various modifications, adaptations, and using various cartridges, these rifles known as Siamese Mausers served as the main infantry weapon of Siam until after World War II. Type 47 carbines were also made on the same design lines and in 1923 Type 46/66 rifles and carbines were introduced. This is a rare to find excellent, original Siamese Type 46 rifle. It has superb all original woodwork and metal and has forward and rear sling swivels. It also has a steel butt plate with trap, block & blade fore sight, adjustable rear sight & sliding dust cover. The metal work has Siamese crest and script characters which we believe translate to ‘1903’ date as found on other examples of this model of rifle. The rifle is serial number 754. Deactivated to UK specification in 2002 the rifle strips and it cocks and dry fires crisply. The price for this rare rifle includes deactivation certificate & UK delivery. Sn 18196:22 £0.00 |

**AMERICAN CIVIL WAR ERA**& JOHN WILKES BOOTH ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN CONNECTIONS**Manson Sheffield (Most Likely A U.S. Import Agent) German Silver Cutlery Hilt Spear Point Bowie Knife With Etched ‘EAG’ Monogram Panel Blade & Open Top Scabbard. - 23096 ‘MANSON’ and ‘SHEFFIELD’ have been found stamped on Bowie knives that have survived from the American Civil War era. Several feature in the study of Civil War knives by Marc Newman (1998)1. Manson Bowies are usually plain spear-points, with occasional acid-etched patriotic slogans. One knife in Newman (and also shown on the website of Ford’s Theatre, Washington, DC) is of particular interest, because it was said to have been carried by John Wilkes Booth, when he assassinated President Abraham Lincoln. It is stamped ‘MANSON / SHEFFIELD and etched: ‘AMERICA LIBERTY INDEPENDANCE ’, ‘THE LAND OF THE FREE AND HOME OF THE BRAVE’. According to Dave Taylor (2013), however, that knife was more likely to have been collected from the house of Mary Surratt and that Booth’s actual weapon was a ‘Rio Grande Camp Knife’ made by Wm. Jackson & Co. Unfortunately, ‘Manson’ has proved impossible to track either in Sheffield or the US. Probably, he was an American import agent, who operated in the Civil War years. His knives belong to the same era as those produced by Westa and Wilson Swift – also unidentified makers (see Newman, Marc, Civil War Knives Boulder, Colorado, 1998, Taylor, Dave, ‘Cloak and Daggers’, Knife World (4 April 2013) & Geoffrey Tweedale, Directory of Sheffield Cutlery Manufacturers, 1740-2022 3rd edition). This is an original cutlery handled spear point Bowie signed Manson Sheffield, a survivor of the American Civil War era. The Bowie has a typical period cast German Silver cutlery form handle with cast foliate decoration. The hilt has an oval German Silver finger guard. The just under 6 ½” long, steel spear point blade with medial ridge has areas of staining consistent with age. One side of the blade is signed ‘Manson Sheffield’ and the reverse has a foliate etched panel with monogram that looks like ‘EAG‘ most likely the initials of the Civil war owner. The Bowie measures just under 11 ½” overall. The blade is ¾” broad at its widest. The original dark brown leather scabbard has German Silver throat mount and chape. All leather and stitching are intact with light surface wear consistent with age and handling. The price for this interesting American Civil War era Bowie includes UK delivery.
