friends,
I was reading an article last night by a former Confederate captain who commaded a battalion of sharpshooters in the ANV.
http://www.cfspress.com/sharpshooter...or-Captai-8731
He describes the arms thusly: The sharpshooters were armed with the improved Enfield rifle; the scouts with rifles of the Whitworth make, with telescopic sights.
Have you ever seen reference to "the improved enfield" is this the shorter 2 band enfield? I have heard some NSSA guys say that shoots better than the standard p53.
thanks for the help,
bryant
