For browningautomaticrifle, the paint up front is white. No question that the buttstock paint markings will stay. They do look like “FR” when held level though.
As for the pictures on the Knox form,...
I’ll pull her out of the stock this weekend and check the Knox form. I’ll also try to tackle some of the paint splatter.
It has been quite a few years since I last posted here, but I have a Enfield-related inquiry and figured this would be the best place to get an answer, if anywhere at all. I just picked up this 1915...
I got a M1917 Eddystone with my Lee Enfield No4 Mk1, and I was wondering of I should restore it back to its original military condition. It currently has a Bishop stock and a Tasco scope, and all the...
Then should I open the box or let it sit and hope it'll be worth it in a few years?

Ok, thanks, also here's a question that might be impossible to tell, but is there any way I could tell if it has seen frontline service or has been issued? By looking at numbers or what kind of wear...
Ok, thanks. is there any way you could tell me what a rack number is?

Left=37 on stock
Middle="F" on flip-up brass plate
Right=The four "stars" on the magazine floorplate and the "AS"
Sorry if they're hard to see, I did them in a...
[I'll get them on ASAP
I just got a No4 Mk1, and I can't figure out a few of the markings.
1) A white "37" painted on the stock.
2) A "F" on the flip-up brass disc on the butt plate
3) Four things that look like stars...
