Original British Colonial .75 cal Tiger Rifle Lock Assembly screwed into the rear ofOriginal Item: Only One Available. This came from the old Palace of Lagan Silikanna in Kathmandu, Nepal in 2003. It started life as a good quality Tiger Rifle in percussion with octagonal Damascus twist barrel heavily rifled measuring 30" and 47" overall length. The rifling is now worn and the rifle was clearly serviced by Nepalese gun makers. The lock bears none of the original British markings but has been marked in local Nepalese Negari script.
