    I'm late to the party but since no one else has offered any opinions here are my thoughts.

    The single "B" on the wrist is probably the original inspector mark for the RI stock. The "SA SPG" and the two proof "P's" are indicative of re-building.

    You remembered correctly Rick. There are 3 biscuits on the ( replacement [swapped], but still Remington ) "Lend/Lease" handguard on that rifle. As stated, the Brits could be "thrifty" at times.
