The M1867 Russian Krnka (Винтовка Крнка́) was a breech loading conversion of the muzzle-loading Model 1857 Six Line rifle musket designed by Czech arms maker Sylvester Krnka. It was adopted by the Russian Empire in 1869 and was similar to the contemporary Snider-Enfield and Tabatiere conversions. Conversions were carried out at the Tula armory (TOZ). Two main versions were produced: infantry and cavalry rifles.
