Lee-Metford Mk 2

[Florey55]

Greetings,

I have just become the proud owner of a Lee-Metford Mk2.

It still has the original cleaning rod, magazine chain, front and rear volley sights and piling swivel.

It joins a mint No4T, a No4 Mk1/3, a 1907 No1 Mk3 and a 1916 No 1 Mk3 in my rifle safe..

I was expecting to see the maker and date of manufacture on the RHS of the wrist, but there is only a serial number.

How can I tell when it was made?
