1942 Fazakerley No4 Mk1. Really nice rifle

[Brian Dick]

I forgot to add that I have one of those original rifles in stock and for sale. Purchased from me in 1990 and consigned from the son of a lifetime friend who passed away unexpectedly a couple of years ago. It's a '44 BSA. It sports the '46 post war stamp on the left butt socket and is still in its original blackened finish. No one seems to know where they were inspected, repaired and marked but I suspect it was a pooled ordnance workshop in Europe. The British and Canadians had them in Germany and possibly Italy. When I imported hundreds of the former Greek issue Long Branch rifles in 2001, many of the wartime dated rifles had the '46 stamp on the left socket too.
