Pattern 1861 Enfield musketoon
From Warlike
Q15952577
The Pattern 1861 Enfield musketoon was a short-barrel version of the Pattern 1853 Enfield rifled musket, having a faster rifling twist rate, along with more rifling grooves, which made it as accurate as the rifle at shorter ranges. The much shorter barrel would otherwise reduce the accuracy at longer ranges. The shorter rifle was therefore easier to carry and reload.
