	Antique Arms, Inc. - Rare 1st Pattern Brunswick Rifle from the 1st 60th King's Royal Rifle Corps
		The Brunswick was rather difficult to load and while this rifle has its historical critics, its range of accuracy was 3-400 yards was quite an advancement for an 1830's era military rifle.
		This rare and historic 1st pattern Brunswick was once carried in the hands of the elite riflemen belonging to the 1st Battalion of the legendary 60th King's Royal Rifle Corps aka the KRRC.
		This Rifle was the 21st Rifle in the 1st Battalions Inventory and it 1839 date is the earliest we've encounterd for Brunswicks...even for the 1st Pattern.

	Rifle - LoveToKnow 1911
		Gas-operated rifles, like the Hotchkiss and Colt machine guns, have fixed barrels and are worked by a portion of the powder-gases which is allowed to escape from the barrel through a small hole near the muzzle, thence entering a cylinder and working a piston in connexion with the breech mechanism.
		In both rifles, on the left side of the stock, is a long-distance sight (graduated to 2800 yds.), which consists of an aperture sight near the bolt and a dial and movable pointer near the hand-guard.
		Rifles of r2-bore gauge, firing a spherical ball, were subsequently made, with broad and shallow grooves making one turn in ro ft. The bullet, of the same diameter as the bore, was loaded with a thin patch that took the grooving.

	Antique Arms, Inc. - Enfield Model 1837 1st Pattern Brunswick Rifle w/Bayonet & History
		The rifle was developed for fire more support for the infantry and issued to the elite 60th and 95th Rifle Corps and replaced the old rifled Flintlock Baker rifles.
		This was a wide departure from the traditional redcoat uniforms and the rifle brigade certainly stood apart from the traditional British soldier both in equipment, dress, and tactics.
		This rare and historic 1st pattern Brunswick was once carried in the hands of the elite riflemen belonging to the 1st Battalion of the legendary 60th King's Royal Rifle Corps or(KRRC).

	Gibbon's Artillery Manual
		A rifle is a gun having in its bore a number of grooves, helical in form, which, as the projectile passes out of the bore, give it the rifled or rotating motion.
		Rifled Cannon.-- The importance of applying the rifle principle to guns of large calibre, is too evident to need any explanation; and many and various have been the attempts made to succeed in it, but up to the present without any degree of certainty, although much progress has been made.
		The rifled gun used with such success by the French in Italy, was, from the imperfect description we have received of it, a three -grooved rifle, and fired an oblong projectile having on the cylindrical part three pairs of soft metal buttons projecting from the surface and countersunk in the metal of the shot.

		Nonetheless civilian rifle design has not significantly since the early part of the 20th Modern hunting rifles have fiberglass stocks and advanced recoil pads but are fundamentally the same infantry rifles from 1910.
		Derived from experiments with inter-war anti-tank rifles modern large-calibre designs gained acceptance in 1980s as a means of destroying equipment personnel at distances of a mile or thus allowing snipers greater stand-off than before.

	RIFLE - Online Information article about RIFLE
		Britain was the first to adopt for her army a breech-loading rifle with metallic cartridge-case, which secured the perfect obturation of the breech.
		The Metford rifling is as follows:—diameter of bore, •303 in.; depth of rifling, •004 in.; width of lands, •023 in.; twist of rifling, one turn in lo in.
		In the case of machine guns the firing also is automatic, but self-firing rifles are not very desirable as infantry weapons and in addition are so heavy as to approximate to machine guns.

	Long-Range Rifle-Fire (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		But, whereas an average Baker rifle could make it very dangerous for a "head and shoulders" 250 yards off, the smooth-bore musket was so erratic that it was of little use trying to hit a single man at distances over a hundred yards.
		The Brunswick, like the Baker, fouled very considerably; and the fumbling, especially in cold weather, to get the belt of the bullet into the groove at the muzzle was a horrid drawback.
		To give our infantry a rifle which, as regards hitting power, is as superior to the English "Martini-Henry" and to the Russian "Berdan" as those rifles are to the Snider seems to be a point worth securing in a match which, sooner or later, is pretty certain to be played.

	REME Technical Notes on Weapons Collection - Rifles
		The early breech loading rifles failed because the breech sealing devices were unsatisfactory but, with the invention of the metal cartridge, this problem was solved and the way opened for the development of a whole range of bolt action and magazine fed rifles which could deliver very accurate and rapid fire.
		In 1756 the Royal American Regiment, afterwards the 60th Rifles, was raised and 16 rifles were obtained for this battalion in 1758, and later, officers began to carry rifles.
		This rifle was produced by the Royal Ordnance Small Arms factories under the designation of the 7.62 mm LlAl Rifle and was in general use with the British Armed forces until 1987.

	DaveT's Club Design
		Brunswick (later FM Precision and now Royal Precision) is the only shaft manufacturer that grades shafts by numerical frequency (for some shafts), instead of the usual LARSX letter grades.
		In the Brunswick system, a shaft oscillation of 255 cycles per minute for a 43" driver is called a 5.5 flex, and is claimed to correspond roughly to other manufacturers' "R" flex.
		Because the flex grades are derived by frequency matching, Brunswick claims that a set of their shafts is matched better than their competitors' within a matched set of shafts.

		The Brunswick, a percussion gun that replaced the flintlock Baker rifle in British regular service in 1840, and subsequently in the East India Company's private army, was issued in both back action and conventional lock style.
		The Brunswick rifle's most notable characteristic is, to American eyes at least, its rather odd, two grooved rifling, designed for a belted round ball.
		This style of rifling and projectile was not unique to the Brunswick, and is seen in a number of sporting rifles of the period, including monster 4 bore guns favored by the likes of African hunter and explorer Sir Samuel Baker.

		This system, which was more reliable than the gun flint, appeared in the British army in 1836 with the adoption of the Brunswick rifle for rifle corps.
		However, the rifled gun was still muzzle-loaded, which meant that it could be fired only about three times per minute.
		But repeating cavalry rifles were still too inaccurate for the infantry, which preferred a one-shot breech-loading weapon that fired accurately, approximately six shots per minute.
