"K" mark on cutoff recess M1903A3

**Kolenbrander** · 03-05-2010 04:29 PM

Hello, I own a M1903A3 Remington nbr 3990989 with barrel 6/44. All the marks are correct. The C-stock shows a "K" mark upside down in the cutoff recess. Anyone can tell me where to find information when it was made and by whome?

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

The "K" stands for Keystone a contract manufacturer of stocks during WW2.

Are there any other marks on the stock?

Regards,

Jim

The barrel (as you may know) is a replacement.
