    1943 Long Branch No.4 skeleton with an Australian connection.

    I just recently acquired this rather interesting 1943 Long Branch No.4 skeleton action that looks to have an Australianicon connection.







    The little gold address sticker on the butt stock says

    PERTH ACADEMY DETACHMENT
    BLACK WATCH BN A.C.F.
    MURRAY PLACE
    PERTH
    Then what looks like a postal code.
    sorry the pic sucks and is up side down



    And and interesting stamp on the top of the barrel. Again up side down:



    So does the PERTH ACADEMY DETACHMENT still exist? Is that M inside a star an Australian property mark?
