    collecting the MARK 1*** in the USA

    I have a small collection of the Mark 1 variations and in the USAicon, I find more Mark 1*** rifles with the second serial number and the ER or CR prefix than the non prefix. Also found a G prefix on a 1904 Enfield Mark 1***. The regular Mark 1*** with just the production serial number is very difficult, and I have only found one BSA 1906 matching s/n s over 87176.

    Also found a Enfield 1907 Cond 11* with early sights for the Mark V1 cartridge

    A few years ago I found two Mark 1** I P rifles that were upgraded to Mark 111 in 1914 and 1917.

    On the Irish rifles, I have noticed that the CR prefixes use a lot of Mark 111 parts and wood while the ER appear somewhat original.
