    Inld. type 2 stock marking ???

    Hi
    Could use some help. I have a type 2 Inld. stock. There is some letters on the right side of the stock that I have never seen on a M1icon carbine stock. MRT Would any one know what that is for. Thanks for any help.

    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.

    On web gear I think it means 'Mold Resistant Treatment' but I haven't seen it on stocks. I guess the most likely thing is Mt. Rainier Arsenal, but I can't see the letters well enough to confirm anything but the 'R'.

    'Mr. T' from the A-Team!. Seriously, I have no idea. It is a nice stock, though.
