Change in name of LongBranch to Canadian Arsenals
The "official" date of change was August 29, 1947.
The CA (A within the C) logo became official on that day by an act of Parliament.
How long it took to change markings on manufactured items and dies is anyone's guess.

History of Long Branch Arsenal
Sorry to hijack your thread Warren, but I got a ton of LB info y'all might be interested in…. Technically LB was a Crown corp in 1940, with the Government being pretty much the only stockholder. So it could have fallen under a 'Canadian Arsenals' umbrella due to that, or, even a wartimes measures act....?!
