german marked SMLE (real or fake?)

[Peter Laidler]

Just a minute chaps.................... Aren't we getting extremely side tracked here? The point of the thread is the captured and later FTR'd Nazi marked No1 rifle. The simple facts are some think the marks are genuine but can't say for certain why they feel that way. Many others say it's a load of old tosh and say with a degree of certainty why they feel that way
