Hi everybody, I'm new to this sight and looking for some info on a 1915 bsa no1 mk3 that was given to my father as collateral for a loan 40 something years ago, needless to say the debt wasn't repaid. My dad had no need for a gun in the city so it was given to my uncle in northern Alberta who used it for many seasons of moose hunting. I recently asked if if he still had it and if he didn't use it if I could have it so now it is in my collection. I vaguely remember shooting it when I was about 8, my dad told me they had to prop me up against the barn so the recoil didn't knock me over. Anyway.. from lots of reading here it seems that this is where the experts are, if anybody can tell me more about this rifle and some of the markings it would be appreciated, I'm thinking of restoring it to military configuration. Ps. Already restored the "original" sporter stock to a more natural state, it was covered in an ugly black paint.
