During the First Boer War (1880–81), a British unit was besieged by the Boer forces who shelled them from the nearby hill, the former holding out until the end of the war in February 1881. Internet resource www.angloboerwar.com lists 206 Boers with the surname Jordaan taken prisoner during the Boer war with information regarding where they were captured and interned.

Carcano is the frequently used name for a series of Italian bolt-action military rifles and carbines. Introduced in 1891. The rifle chambered for the rimless 6.5×52mm Mannlicher-Carcano cartridge was developed by the chief technician Salvatore Carcano at the Turin Army Arsenal in 1890 and designated the Model 91 (M91).

The reliability of the weapon convinced Fascist Italy to re commence manufacturing the Infantry rifle during WW2. This is an excellent original example of the M1891 Rifle. Its wood stock and metal are all original. It is equipped with swivels, bayonet lug and steel butt plate. The breech is stamped 'Terni' (Arsenal) and dated '17' (1917).
