Have a 1916 with 2 serials on the knox neither is crossed out as per FTR with the barrel replacement.

Has the "H" denoting the shortened Metford Barrel stamped on the handgrip, I heard these were upgrades and given to marksmen in WWI.
The serial on the butt matches one of the ones on the knox I was under the impression that the original Ser No. was Xed out when a FTR happened.

Also on the Knox it has like a ? without the dot in a circle any clues, it is a
5th Military District issue (Western Australiaicon).
Has the Mag Cut off though these were deleted in 1915 started again in the 20's and discontinued in 1942? also windage sights(another 1915 deletion)

I also have a OA 1945 MkIII it has the date on the butt socket but just under where the bolt handle sits it has x1941 (manufactured 1941??).
Neither are for sale as they are pristine the 1945 will not accept a .302 gauge either end and it is not a rusty tomato stake either lol.
