Firearms and Accessories / Honolulu Rifles
« on: June 25, 2019, 12:41:33 PM »
Hello all, first post.
Not sure if this is the right place to post, but here it goes...
Does anyone know what the Honolulu Rifles used as their standard rifle circa 1880s and 90s? Or was it whatever personal arm you could get?
Also, what was the standard issue rifle of the kingdom of Hawaii also around that time?
In my searching, I could never find the model. Even found a TO&E for the army under King Kalakaua at Hamilton Library but it just mentioned "rifles"
Would appreciate any help in this matter.
