Some say its Egyption Police and others say Property of Egypt. Found on Enfield Revolvers, Weblys, Lanchesters and a whole other raft of small arms.

Thanks, we thought possibly Egypt, though the previous Webley Autos I had were EP#### marked for Egyptian Police.

In that position, the stamp has effectively ended any prospect of repairing/removing the cylinder axis shaft that is pressed into the hole below it! Drawn out using a special jig. Base workshop job.

Base workshop job.

Even more so now...
