Good morning everyone,
Recently traded for a Enfield no I mk III* . Date was 1917. Upon reception I am a little confused as to the Osterr Gendarmerie with the Austrian blazon marking. Its all matching 7114S virgin bronze buttstock marking disk. Barrel is HV marked at the sights.

I was wondering if anyone could give me information on this model. From a quick websearch, the Austrians gained some Enfields for policing after WWII. Would this enfield have served WWI then been sold or has it lost its heritage and was renumbered for foreign service?
