Hi all I have a No.4 Mk1* for sale but before so i'm in need of some help.
My No.4 is a Long Branch 1942 Dated. The help I seek is information about the stock marking on it. It appears to be a sequence of letters and numbers located on the LH side of the stock. Photo provided. Admin feel free to relocate or delete post if inappropriate.
Regards,
Lucas.
Is that WLH/10/51? The 10/51 would be the date in question I should think. Here's a thread that have a suggested answer from Peter Laidler on it...

Hi Jim,
Unfortunately, the thread doesn't answer the question. But yes from his photos the markings on my rifle are definitely
WLH/10/51.
Just a minute........ You asked what the marks were - and we told you! What doesn't that answer in relation to what you asked...........?
Ok then, let's try it this way. The fourth post said..."Those marks originate from 18 Command Workshop at Bovington in Dorset. September 1956."...In your case apply the year marking to your rifle...Oct 1951.Quote:
