I am the new owner of a No4Mk2 and went looking for 303 ammunition today. On the racks of the gun shop was a No4Mk2 with beech stock that someone had beadblasted the finish off of.

I did not have a borelight to see if the barrel was blasted as well but it would not surprise me

There was flash rust on some of the metal bands so I don't think that any type of finish was applied.

Does anyone apply the black Suncorite finish or is this rifle destined for the great armory in the sky?
