The Brunswick Rifle production began in March 1838, and the first mass-produced rifles were issued to the Rifle Brigade, the Canadian Rifle Regiment, and a few specialized units in 1840. The Brunswick rifle using Belted Ball developed a reputation for being difficult to load, but was fairly well received and remained in production for almost 50 years.
