Looks like re-park and new wood to me (I have a near mint 1943 marked Lithgow that is original and does NOT look like this (or the next one).

I have one just like it and can say with great certainty that it is a J. Jovino rifle cobbled together from left over Lithgow stores/spares. The serial number, 'A' suffix is a dead giveaway for one thing.

I fitted a Central sight and a target sling swivel to mine for 'paper punching'.
