Research notes
Still under construction.
British manufacturers produced ammunition for the Peabody-Martini on contract, as well as the Americans and the French.
The specimen below is American made, probably by UMC. It has been sectioned to show the typical UMC "folded head" construction. More will be discussed under the Military section.
