Home›Small Arms And Sidearms›Rifles and Carbines›Bolt-Action, Lever-Action and Historic Rifles›All Bolt-Action, Lever-Action and Historic RiflesBrowse ByAll Bolt-Action, Lever-Action and Historic RiflesThis is a child group of Rifles and Carbines, collecting the Small Arms And Sidearms subcategory's manually operated and early-era rifles: bolt-action service and sporting rifles, lever-action repeating rifles, breech-loading and muzzle-loading black-powder rifles, flintlock and percussion-era designs, and rifled muskets that predate self-loading actions entirely. It spans several centuries of small arms development, from flintlock muzzle-loaders through twentieth-century bolt-action service and anti-materiel rifles still fielded after self-loading rifles became standard. The 43 members here share a manually cycled or muzzle-loaded action rather than a single era, which is why the group name states both the mechanism and its historic character rather than a narrow date range.FactsAll Bolt-Action, Lever-Action and Historic RiflesSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested1824 1All Bolt-Action, Lever-Action and Historic RiflesFilter Results98 entriesWeapon ClassAllRifle (70)Small Arm (28)Weapon FamilyAllBolt-Action, Lever-Action and Historic Rifles (98)Rifles and Carbines (98)Introduced EraAll1722 (1)1777 (1)1801 (1)1819 (1)1822 (1)1841 (1)1848 (1)1850 (1)1853 (1)1855 (1)1857 (2)1860 (3)1861 (2)1863 (1)1866 (1)1867 (4)1869 (2)1870 (1)1871 (1)1872 (1)1873 (1)1874 (1)1878 (1)1880 (1)1884 (3)1885 (1)1886 (2)1887 (1)1888 (4)1889 (3)1890 (3)1891 (3)1893 (2)1894 (1)1895 (4)1897 (2)1898 (1)1899 (2)1903 (3)1904 (1)1905 (2)1906 (2)1912 (1)1913 (2)1915 (1)1917 (1)1920 (1)1921 (1)1924 (1)1932 (1)1933 (1)1934 (1)1935 (2)1936 (1)1938 (1)1939 (1)1948 (1)1956 (1)1958 (1)1962 (1)1963 (1)1967 (2)1968 (1)1993 (1)1997 (1)1999 (1)2006 (1)2008 (1)2011 (1)2012 (1)ManufacturerAllBaldwin Locomotive Works (1)Barrett Firearms Manufacturing (1)Beretta (2)Birmingham Small Arms Company (1)Blaser (1)Brescia Arsenal (1)Carl Gustafs stads gevärsfaktori (1)Colt's Manufacturing Company (1)Danuvia (1)Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (1)Eddystone Arsenal (1)Erma Werke (1)Fegyver- és Gépgyár (2)FN Herstal (1)German Arms and Ammunition Factory (1)Hanyang Arsenal (1)Harpers Ferry Armory (1)Husqvarna Group (1)IMBEL (1)Ishapore Rifle Factory (1)Kalashnikov Concern (1)Kongsberg Gruppen (1)Lithgow Arms (1)London Small Arms Co.
