    Rifle Identification

    Hi All
    I am a new member and have been researching the forums here for some assistance with a rifle identification from some grainy pictures.

    The attached pictures is my Dad from WWII. He was with the Canadian Army, Light Anti-Aircraft division. He was in Canadaicon from July 41 until November 41 then was in the United Kingdomicon from November 41.

    My best guess (i am not a good historian) is the rifle in the pictures is a P14 with a sniper sight?? My guess is from the shape of the stock, grove on the front of the stock and how the bayonet is attached. I could be completely wrong too.

    I believe the Canadian army used the P14 for training in WWII

    If anyone is able to provide additional information would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Bob
