    Question amongst my grandafther's WW1 posessions...parker hale & steward bits and bobs

    Hi

    My grandfather was, as far as I knew, a medical orderly in WW1. He was also a sporting gun enthusiast. Amongst a box containing his general service buttons and various other brass badges I found this little box from J.H. Steward. I assumed it was WW1 issue, but now am not so sure. I have added some photos and can add more if neccessary.

    In my attempts to identify it I have unscrewed, all the bits that I can to find model number etc. When I did I found that this bit (sorry complete ignoramus) is marked Parker-Hale ph62.

    Also this little brass screw box is marked Parker-Hale.

    Having done extensive research (ahem) I am now somewhat confused.

    My questions -

    When was this made?
    What rifle did it fit?
    Finally what is it worth?

    I wish to sell it and don't want to con anyone by selling it as something it is not.

    Thanks for your help in advance.
