Breech-Loading Rifle, System Beaumont, Rear-loading rifle with drawn barrel. It has a central firing mechanism of the Beaumont type. The chamber is opened with a locking button and the closing piece slides back, so that the firing pin is also tensioned immediately. The cartridge can then be loaded and the closing piece pushed back, pushing the cartridge into the barrel. The gun has a visor. The discharge stick is missing. The rifle has an iron bayonet bayonet. The massive bronze handle of the bayonet has a slot with a snip, which it fits on the bar on a barrel, it has a guard rod, bent on one side with a knob, on the other in the form of a ring, because it runs straight in front of it, the blade has a flat back, a slit and is bent with the cut inwards. The sheath must be removed before firing the gun, because it blocks the barrel., De Beaumont (mentioned on object), Maastricht, c. 1870, wood (plant material), iron (metal), bronze (metal), l 71.3 cm × c 11 mm
