Help ID'ing Eddystone

[MNCop]

I just picked up an eddystone with a 10-18 barrel and all parts eddystone. They all are parkerized. The stock has a P in a box behind the trigger gaurd, a capital letter A in front of the magazine floorplate, and a number on the stock end cap that is either 66 or 65. In some light the number looks like two E's. I think it is all original except maybe the stock.

Thanks for your help.

If all the parts are parkerized, it went through a rebuild. Almost all of the parts should be marked, this link is a good reference.

I thought Eddystone changed over to a Parkerizing process in around Oct. 1918?

Yes, but it was smooth black parkerizing that looked very close to the original browned/blued finish. It did not look like the parkerizing that we normally think of on US military rifles.

Look at the end of the stock near the muzzle. It should be stamped with a letter.
