The many significant problems with the Model 1903 / MkI Ross rifle had quickly led to the development of the improved MkII design. This strengthened many parts, including the sights, nosecap, bolt latch, and more. The receiver was made thicker, and an extra set of cams added to make the bolt throw smoother. Primary extraction was added by way of angling the locking lugs. Mk II rifles began to come off the Ross Rifle Company production line in December of 1905.
Between its introduction and its replacement by the MkIII in 1912, the MkII Ross would undergo 5 changes in type, mostly involving different rear sights. However, a distinct "long" pattern was also made, designated the MkII**. This model had a longer barrel and some mechanical changes, and was also fitted with a rear aperture sight and stripper clip guide. These would be very successful in competition shooting at the time, and helped salvage the reputation of the Ross after the problems of the MkI.
Overall, 13,700 "long" MkII Rosses were made along with 124,000 of the "short" type. They did see use in World War One, as armament for Canadian artillery units. They were also used as training rifles by the military, and the US government also purchased 20,000 of the MkII3* pattern for use training the multitudes of new US soldiers joining up to fight in Europe.
Many thanks to the private collectors who allowed me access to their rifles to make this video!

We had a few Ross rifles in our school CCF armoury in the 1960’s. They had not been used for years but the armourer who came over from the Redford barracks in Edinburgh once a month to do any work needed, was very happy to re-commission one for me. It was a Mk.2 but I cannot recall, if I ever knew, how many stars. It shot as well as our rather worn SMLE No.4 rifles. I became rather taken with straight pull rifles and later bought my own Mannlicher M1895 carbine in 8 x 56R - not a very wise buy, as sporting ammunition was very hard to come by.

Great video on a very confusing topic. Sir Sam Hughes defended the weapon right up to the very end often calling it "the finest firearm ever built". His steadfast defence of the flawed gun, which ultimately cost lives, ended up being a major factor in his dramatic fall from grace. The C-broad arrow you allude to at 10:50 is the standard government property mark in Canada from about that time up until 1949; it doesn't indicate that the rifle was sold out of service. The Brits would indicate that something was sold out of service by counter stamping an opposing arrow ( -x- ). I haven't seen anything like that with the C-broad arrow. Great video, as always. I thoroughly enjoy your series!

This is one of the reasons I like your channel you dig really deep into the history and bring examples to verify your findings. I have an interesting question, can you find a paper trail for the rifle (I am Told Ross) as used by Francis Pegahmagabow MM & two bars. My Grand father fought along side of him at the Ypres front at St Julien when the Canadians relieved the French Algerian troops who were virtually wiped out during e first German gas attack, the Canadian were accompanied by Indigenous, Singh and Muslim plus Gurkha troops. My grandfather said they were all fine troops who you could trust with your life, one note, he said you had better lace your boots up per British Standards or you would not wake up if the Gurkhas past through at night. Keep up the great work. Note 2 you are in this article bring more facts to light about the Ross that my Grandfather covered but only in passing and the actual rifles as use in the Ypres, St Julien front.

Built after the Australian gun restrictions came in, it was to be the replacement for the SKS and SKK semi-autos favoured by pest eradication shooters. Straight pulls were considered legal, whereas semi-autos were not. An interesting design if you can find one.

My only question is regarding the marking on the Mk II 5* that you identify at 10:50 as indicating that the rifle was sold out of service. The mark looks very much like a Broad Arrow with a large "C" around it which was the Canadian Broad Arrow indicating it was government property.

I have a feeling the different receiver and barrel threads are economy. I can cut fine threads way faster than coarse on a manual lathe because of the depth of cut being shallower. The receiver fine threads are also easy to tap vs the acme thread that would be easier to thread mill than tap or single point cut. The coarse barrel threads would probably be milled rather than turned.

thanks for the information. I bought a "sporterized" Ross rifle a couple of years ago and just started looking at it to figure out what to do with it. It is a 1905 Mk3 and looks like it has the US markings as well. unfortunately they are not clear as someone reconditioned the stock. the "sporsterizing" was simply cutting the stock off forward of the middle barrel band. I found a company that produces replica stocks and parts like the front sight hood and the bayonet lug and front band. would it be worth replacing the entire stock or should I just add a front piece in order to keep the original stock?

It's also possible that he was experimenting with 280 Ross or its predecessors at this time and found that extremely coarse thread to be a major stress point that wasn't holding up under the higher loads. The fine threads should be both stronger and less of a crack propagation point. Without a doubt a lot of the features in Ross's rifles come from his sporting rifles/experiments and it would not be terribly surprising to see yet another carryover added into the already large pile.

The AR-15 pattern and the Ross are both of note for being military and civilian patterns. The Ross was a civvie rifle adapted for military service and so has all the shortfalls of a civvie rifle. The AR-15 was developed as part of a military-focused development, the civvie adaptations come with all the military benefits. It's a common theme that civvie rifles don't make great military rifles (obviously there are exceptions) but military rifles are effective when turned to civvie weapons.

@@craigharness3156The answer lies in understanding the time period. True "rapid fire guns"(what we now call machine guns) were new and the use of them not well understood. Most Infantry units didn't have any as they were relegated to the Artillery. To obtain 'volume of fire' on a distant target such as a formation of Infantry or Battery of Artillery, an Infantry unit would form in line, the officer calling out a range setting and the troops would fire one round in volley. This is also why most rifles had a magazine cut-off. No one aimed at an individual soldier but aimed at the mass of a target. It was a different time.

Sounds like an IJ Ring Trigger shotgun. I've seen them in 16 gauge a few times here in New England.
