Talk:Zulu (1964)
The rifle in the picture above appears to be a Carbine version as used by the Cavalry rather than the Infantry Rifle. Note the single metal band around the woodwork also of interest is the absence of a foresight blade. Winch
Magazine Lee Enfield MkI* rifle, calibre .303
The Magazine Lee Enfield (MLE) MkI* rifle used in latter parts of the film in place of the historically accurate Martini-Henry rifles due to either running out of .455 blanks, or lack of sufficient Martini Henry rifles.
This rifle is actually a Lee-Metford and not a Lee-Enfield. The Lee-Metford replaced the Martini-Henry and was the first bolt action rifle in British Army Service.
