Re: Enfield Minie: 3 Bands or No Bands?

Kathy,

I just checked with D. W. Bailey's, "British Military Longarms, 1715-1865" and no "no-band" Enfields are listed. There is however the Pattern 1851 Rifle-musket carried and used during the Crimean War. Besides having no bands, the rear sight is different from that of the Enfield.
