    Question Need info on a 1853 Enfield Rifle

    I recently was passed down from an uncle an Enfield 1853 Rifle which I would like to know more about. I believe the rifle was a replica made in the 1970's and though it was a hobby of my uncles (to reenact), I don't think he used it much because he was a Dr. who taught dental school and was very busy. I was hoping someone could give me some information about the rifle and also who would be interested in obtaining a rifle like this one. I live a few miles away from Gettysburg Battlegrounds in Pennsylvania so I'm thinking I'm in the right area. I did talk to a fellow at the Great American Outdoor Show last week and they said the rifle was in super condition with no corrosion according to the pics I showed him. Thanks so much for any help you might be able to give.
