Thanks Rob

I just replied to this and then pressed the wrong button so I have to do it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a mystery but that's what makes these things interesting isn't it?

I think that MBFA and BC are in the same font.

I was wondering if BC was Britishicon Columbia Reg, as it was in the ABW.

The dust cover has been removed and so has the lug. The rear volley sight had been removed and replaced by a 1912 9c BSA military sight. I believe that some colonial units in WWI used these primitive 'sniper' rifles.

I would think that a butt replacement might more likely have been with the SMLE type wood?

I WILL post some pics as it might be interesting for the SA boys.

Cheers

Steve
