Last week looked at a No4 MK1 T sniper. It is a BSA 1945. It was a very nice kit complete with chest. Scope and bracket match rifle, fore-end matched....even the scope case matched!!! All the correct markings....the S by the mag cut-off, the T on the left side of the reciever, TR on the wrist, scope # on top of butt etc. The only thing that threw me off was the absence of the S51 stamp on the bottom of the butt. The butt does have the other stampings on the underside the same as my other 1945 BSA T. The fellow is 81 yrs old and told me he acquired the gun in the 60's...I believe that to be true. Is there reason to be concerned that the butt lacks the S51 stamp while everything else seems correct??? I did not pull the butt out of the socket to see if rifle serial # was there!!
No pictures available.
I'm sorry if this question has been asked before on the forum.....sometimes it's difficult to find info pertaining to a specific question.
