Hello Chris, Those are some fantastic pictures. They are all armed to the teeth. The only thing I new about the Boer War until recently was a movie(I can't remember the name) about some British soldiers accused of war crimes and are executed in the end. Every few years I'll catch it on television. Here is a link I found looking for train wrecking. http://abw.netfirms.com/photos.htm thanks, barry

Hello Warlord, I'm not sure when it was converted, but it still works and was last fired in the 1970s. In the lower left corner of the send photo you can see the gun being held. thanks, barry

Hello Everyone, My family has owned this old flint and steel for over 200 years. Descendants used this gun during the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. During the Civil War the gun was hidden in a hollow tree in order to save it from being confiscatated by troops fighting near the family homeplace. Sorry for the not so clear photos....

Hello Chris, It's always fun finding pieces to the puzzle. I wonder what the next piece will be to the grouping. Sad story though... In your photo it looks as though everyone showed up for the execution. Were they shot or hanged. thanks, barry -
