Index marks

[CINDERS]

Had my T apart for its twice yearly dunking in RLO and did not realise they used index marks like the '03's, was this standard for all 303's or just on T's.
Also I was pleased that it still has the original barrel in it but this could be normal for a T I suppose given their role.

Just checked a spare No.4 receiver I have and it has no index marking anyway the Q's there.
TIA

My P14 has a similar mark.

It just seem as though a good proportion of T's HAVE index marks and I have to confess that I never took any notice of this simply because an index mark have no place in breeching up. Certainly not at factory or REME workshop level It's telling that H&H didn't unbreech rifles as their whole set-up was geared around fitting a BRACKET (that already held an already centred and collimated telescope) to an already certified accurate rifle.

Nope......, don't even suggest it! If H&H have to remove the barrel and replace it for some reason, then it fails to be a certified accurate rifle! And their timed wrk schedule for payment programme didn't allow for any extra work.

So we could call it a don't mess with this mark!

On the contrary Cinders........ The mark is totally redundant and serves no purpose whatsoever!

Does your barrel also have the rifles serial number stamped on it? I was wondering if all the T 's have this?

Hi Peter,
Sorry I was alluding to when it went to the H & H factory for fitting up, just a bit of a lark comment! I am the type who pulls things to bits and for some reason always ends up with a spare bit who's location is invariably in the middle of the item taken apart..........

Yes corco the barrel is serialed to the weapon.
