Guys,
I had the good fortune to obtain a lot of original Palmer style Type III Enfield barrel bands complete with swivels this weekend at the Civil War show in Dalton. I am offering 15 of these bands to A/C members at a special rate. These are not listed on my web site right now, as I would like you guys to have first crack at them to de-farb your Enfields. The bands are all in good, complete condition with the swivel, screw and screw keeper in tact. Most of them have Enfield inspector stamps (Crown/E/#) and some do have WD-Broad Arrow war department marks. These could be removed without a lot of effort if you desire to do so. The bands are mostly a medium gray gun metal color with some very light surface rust or discoloration. All of these should clean up nicely, and you can blue them if you so desire. I put one on my Euroarms Enfield last night, and it took about 2 minutes. Due to the the slightly oversized stock & barrel I had to tap the band into place the last 1/2" or so with a small brass hammer. It fit just fine, with no wood or metal work required. However, as Curt likes to say, "your mileage may vary".
The last time I saw Lodgewood selling these, he was charging between $100 and $150 each for them. I am offering them to the A/C community for $80.00 including shipping. If you purchase three or more (shipped in the same package) I'll knock them down to $70.00 each, including shipping. There are three or four bands in the lot with slightly bent sling swivels, if anyone wants those bands, I'll knock $10.00 off of them from either of the above prices. Pictures of the bands are attached to this post.
As previously noted, these are not on my web site, please contact me via E-mail tim@collegehillarsenal.com or telephone at 615-972-2418 to order. You can pay via credit card (Visa/MC/Amex) over the phone, or mail payment to me at:
College Hill Arsenal
PO Box 178204
Nashville, TN 37217
Either way, if you want a barrel band let me know right away so I can make sure that you get one. The bands that don't sell via the forums over the next week or so will go on my web site for $100.00 plus shipping.
Thanks.
