S Rifle, Caliber. The Pattern and U. Model Rifles by Charles Stratton. JWA said What kind of information are you looking for? Jeff, thanks for the information. I recently decided I need one of these to fill a slot. I know nothing about the guns and want to educate myself before I buy.

If I bought 2 books for reference which would you recommend? Ferris and The Pattern and U. Model Rifles by Charles Stratton are both soft-bound and reasonably priced. Those should get you started. Both books are aimed at collectors and detail the various changes and configurations of the Model although neither have the breadth of information found in a Brophy or Campbell work on the Model Thanks Jeff.

I found and read the PDF. It helped me a bit by explaining what and where the markings are. How to know if it is an arsenal rebuild and if the barrel may have been changed. Also, if you find a M with a painted red band around the handguard it usually means the was sent to the British who painted them red to differentiate them from their Patt. The Canadians also bought the Model Enfield in. WWI surplus rifles, they were not necessarily Winchesters.

I talked to Craig Riesch yesterday about the red markings. I will have to ask him about the Canadian guns? Craig has authored and co-authored books on military arms. He often worked with Joe Poyer. Its really well researched and has good photos. Thanks Rick. I have not received C. I saw Craig Saturday but forgot to ask him the question.. In fact they got 79, as were diverted to a small island or country, the name of which escapes me. I talked to Craig today about these guns.
