∙ 12y agoEach Anzac soldier was issued a standard .303 calibre Lee Enfield rifle. At Gallipoli they did not have proper bombs (grenades) so made their own out of jam tins and bits of barbed wire and stuff. They were also equipped with a bayonet (a long blade that was attached to the end of a rifle). Some also made crude clubs and stuff for hand-to-hand battles and trenchraids.
Various marks of the Lee-Enfield rifle in .303 calibre. Some were issued with Owen Guns (Australian made and designed 9mm submachine gun) and Tommy Guns.
