Anzac, It's marked SSA. And here I thought I had found all the marks. You guys amaze me. What does SSA stand for? And what is Peddle Scheme exactly. I remember seeing that before, but don't...

A friend gave me this one about 20 years ago. Curious as to the markings. It has been sprorterized but will not remain so. Other than some missing wood and nose piece, I believe it is mostly all...

I don't know why the pics posted twice. Sorry!

These are the pics I was able to get today.

I can't make out the number on the butt for sure. It was sanded when they refinished it. I'm getting really interested in the markings. I keep finding more of them (benifit of 56 year old eyes....

Bindi2 - I know it is a No4 Mk1T. Guess maybe one of my posts wasn't clear. I also have a no1 Mk3*. That has also been sporterized, (fore end cut down and front hand guard missing, but the bolt...

I am going to try to attach some pics to this message. Please don't refer me to a photography forum after you see them. Had a chance to try a few short range shots at a friends farm the other day....

Prinz & Roger - Now that you have jogged my memory, I believe you are right about the cocking piece. The rifle is mine, bought and paid for, but unfortunately in the press of things I had to do...

I really appreciate all the input. Looks like I am going to buy it tomorrow. I will post pictures as soon as I can. I think this will be a fun project. I don't care so much about the eventual...

I just took another look and here is what I found:

"T" on left side of receiver. Looked like there were other numbers at one time, but unable to make them out. Entire rifle has been reblued.

I am going to loook at it again today to try and get more markings. I found one for sale online that claims to be complete, all matching, and lists the barrel length at 24". Was this done on some...

No chance of pictures. Unfortunately, he is the type of person that if I show that much interest he will hang on to it and it will rust in his basement. I will see if I can get more of the markings....

Hi and thanks to everyone for sharing your knowledge. I recently ran across what appears to be a sporterized sniper- No4 Mk1 T. The barrel is 24 inches long. No scope or mount, but the pads are...

I am a new member, though I have owned a 1918 no1 mk3* that a friend gave me about 20 years a go. I am a nurse and have made friends with a gentlemen patient who was a sniper in Okinawa in WWII. ...
