I had a member ask if we could get some opinions on this piece, specifically do the experts here in their opinion, think this is a legitimate and all correct, or something else?

Pictured above is an Ultra-rare No. 4 Mark I English rifle, with C No. 32 TP Mk I Telescope. 99 rifles were manufactured by Long Branch in Canadaicon. Most of these were destroyed after the war. The scope was made by The Lyman Gun Sight Corporation and is quick-detachable similar to the M1C Garandicon. The rifle has a Griffin and Howe type mount, very similar to the US M1C Garand except the top of the mount is not flat like the M1C but is on a 45 degree angle. The “TP” designation indicates waterproofing. The scope has a serial number on the elevation block. For all practical purposes it is the same scope as the M82 with a post and crosshair. (We are aware of some people passing off the scopes as correct for this rifle when they are not. This rifle has another serial number so small you can hardly see it etched on the telescope body.) To clarify the telescope has two serial numbers which are the same numbers on the telescope.
This rifle is in Excellent to new condition. Complete with Cheek piece.
Regards,
Badger
