Liegeoise 1888 Trials Rifle (2015x130)


Air date: Aug 11, 2015

http://www.patreon.com/ForgottenWeapons The Belgian Army held rifle trials in the late 1880s to choose a new infantry rifle, and the winner was the Model 1889 Belgian Mauser. Quite a few different guns were involved in the competition though, including this Engh-patent rifle made by Liegeoise. It's a pretty unusual bolt action that is definitely worth taking a closer look at!
