Description: Martini Henry Cavalry Carbine Hand Guard These hand guards were introduced in October 1885 to protect the hand from the heat of the barrel when firing rapidly. Entry No. 4937 in the List of Changes in British War Material states that 'They are of brown leather and are provided with eyelets on each side, through which the lace is passed to secure them in a convenient position on the weapon.' 'The guard for the carbine differs from that for the rifle, principally in having spaces cut in it to allow of its being put on immediately over the backsight.' NB. The sight cover in the photograph is not included but may be purchased separately - see my Ebay item no. 142735460164 Please note that my normal dispatch time is 10 working days (but occasionally may exceed this) because all items are hand made to order IMPORTANT NOTE FOR COMBINED SHIPPING COSTS WHEN MAKING MULTIPLE PURCHASESEbay and Paypal charge the full fees on all refunds – this means it is not possible for me to make a full refund on additional postage paid for multiple purchases.In order to combine shipping costs when buying items from more than one of my listings, please follow these steps: Click the 'Add to Basket' tab under the blue 'Buy it Now' tab When all items are in the basket, click on the shopping cart in the top right hand corner.
