Canadian Ranger/ survival rifle?

[BurtonP]

I've just seen a webpage describing scoped EAL survival rifles in use by the Canadian military, and the scope setup rang a bell. It had a Parker Hale A29 mount, RALS-3 rings and a Tasco 4X scope. Mine is a wartime Maltby with a Canadian use stamp, and the same scope base and scope setup. How common was this scope and base setup? Was mine a survival rifle possibly?
