    No.5 47 C

    Saw this on a gun site a No.5 Jungle carbine with the BSA Shirley 47 C stamping could those in the know expand this for all of us that do not know.
    I often thought that this marking denoted it had been an exception to the rule and chosen for accuracy and does it bare the "Ishy Screw"
    I am keen to learn about this as the No.5 was not really noted for its inherent accuracy I may ask if Peter L could he furnish the forum from his font of knowledge on this one.
    Thanks in advance Peter and others who may contribute.

    Post note:
    This is on the Guns International site if you want more pics I typed in 303 Rifle in the search engine and then scrolled through.
