    If the piston extension/carrier is also marked 11481 this is also probably vz39 ,Inglis serial number would have had a 'T' in a 5 digit serial number - 1T1481 or 11T481.

    Yes and no on the T in the serial number. The early Inglis Brens used the series letters M and then N. The standardization to the letters signifying the location of North American production (T for Toronto) didn't come into being until a bit later. But you are certainly right that there should be a letter in there.[COLOR="Silver"]
