The Danish Snider Action Rifle is a classic hammergun design known for its simple operation and sturdy construction. It follows the Snider pattern used in Europe during the late 1800s and is built around a large 17mm bore that suits traditional black powder use.

This example has an unknown maker but clearly follows the Danish Snider style. The barrel measures 26 inches in total with 23 inches from the muzzle to the front of the breech, and it is listed in 17mm caliber. It offers a straightforward layout with a smoothbore barrel and a wood stock, and it dates to 1870 in Denmark.
