    Any chance of getting a more close up look at the mark?

    What rifle type and part type is it stamped on?

    Thanks...

    Regards,

    Here's perhaps a more close up and clearer views that "missing something" emailed me...

    Looks like a Britishicon Proof Mark to me....

    Looks like the entwined GP mark of the London Proof House, a commercial proof mark put on after the arms were surplused. This mark appeared on the CA thompsons sold in the 80s.
