Swapped Enfield Rifles at 150th Fredericksburg

[kayjay]

After cleaning the Enfield today its clear that its not mine. I was with the 88th NY
and I'm pretty sure the inadvertant swap happened after I took at hit at marye's heights. I fell to the left of the Union line close to the spectators maybe 1/3 of the way to the wall. There were a nuymber of casualties around me with rifles on the ground.

My rifle has a cracked stock, a horizontal crack about 1/3 way up the shoulder part, and was about to be repaired. The one I now have does not. Also the bluing is well worn. If you ended up with an Enfield in this condition please contact me at

I forwarded this to the Federal command list, Kevin. Hope you hear something soon.

I'm glad that I am apart of a hobby that is made up of people like Kevin Kelley.
