A cylindrical brass oil bottle, complete with a threaded cap and integral applicator stem. Markings to the base read “J. EFD” along with inspection marks, indicating British military manufacture. These bottles were standard-issue maintenance accessories for rifles, including the Lee-Enfield series, during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Used to carry gun oil for cleaning and lubrication in the field, the robust brass construction ensured durability in harsh service conditions.
