Help with markings No 4 Mk I
Can someone wise tell me where and when my rifle was made?
On the left side of the receiver are 3 very faint electro-pencil markings: No.4MkI(T) FTR/48 Y4145 and stamped T.
on the left of the receiver ring is stamped Y4515 ((note the 4 is very faintly stamped and looks like a 1 in the picture)) TR and FTR. Forward on the right of the receiver is stamped S
The wrist has the S51 Holland and Holland stamp; the wood is also stamped Y4515 horizontally across the underside of the forestock a few inches below the muzzle and Y4515 on the wrist though concealed beneath the receiver ring. The No 32 Mk I scope number 7996 is stamped across the top of the wrist.
On the right of the receiver ring is an inspection mark I cannot deciper: looks like broad arrow over H9 over A
At the back of the receiver are crossed pennant on the right and on the left are the letters N (or Z) and R
What I am after is the date and place of manufacture?
Many thanks, Rob
