New acquisition! My no1 mkIII.

[GlennP]

Ever since marrying my Canadian wife I've been on the hunt to gather together a collection of Canadian service rifles. Of course I wound up starting with the only non Canadian made rifle that I'm looking for (the other two being a Ross and a LB No4mk1) but i couldn't pass this up as it was local and what I believe to be a good deal ($450 USD).

It appears to be matching numbers, the seller told me the stock is likely from the 1930s however. This makes sense as a 1910 dated MKIII would likely have the volley sights in it's original configuration. So, it is my thought that this is a MKIII (no star) updated to MKIII*?

It does however retain the magazine cutoff which is neat.

Is there anything more you can tell me about our rifle from the photos? Does it seem a good buy? I can't wait to shoot it!
