Hi,
I am new to the post and have an Enfield that my dad has had since the late 60's. Its a No4 Mk1* with an import making I can't identify. The rifle was make in 1942 and is Serial # 17C9278. Its a Savage and says US PROPERTY on the side.
The mark appears on the front of the receiver. Also on the bolt handle. Its sorta an upside down T with a side ways C going through it. What is its origin? Who stamped it? I can't find it pictured on any websites. Any one have the Enfield bible who could look it up?
Also it came with the sling pictured. Its an Early WW2 Rifle sling, Since this rifle was made in 1942, in the USA. Would it be historically accurate to keep this sling with the rifle? Did we send Enfields overseas with US slings? The numbers on the magazine, stock and receiver all match too. I believe this rifle has been kept together.
Thanks for your help!Information
