Long Branch serial number locations?

[Schwehn]

Hi all,
I am a long time follower, seldom poster. Love to learn about Lee-Enfields, and really want to expand my vast collection of 2. I am looking at a nice 1943 No.4 mkI* 44L series, and I was wondering when Long Branch stopped adding serial numbers to the stock / magazine. The one i am looking at only has the Canadian broad arrow / C on the forearm, and no markings on the magazine. Is this correct for the time? Any reason they would / wouldn't number the wood?

Thanks
