    BSA receiver undetirmined date as it has been linished off,

    G.R Cipher ~ Georgius Rex (King George V) 1911-1936,

    Looks to have the Weedon star on the under side of the wrist

    L - Long Butt as they came in 4 lengths I think, Bantam, Short, Medium (Normal?), Long (could be wrong there)

    I will see what the 76/GE & 38/GE turns up.

    Could that partially linished original mfr date be 1917? Is the rifle built on a Mk3 or 3* receiver?

    Make sure the butt stock bolt doesn't have the square section on the end, or you will have to remove the forend before you attach or remove the butt stock.
