german marked SMLE (real or fake?)

[enfield303t]

I think it is not much of a stretch to put the Enfield and the M44 into the same category so here goes. The 44 is in a depot in a communist country sometime after 45 but before 48. This is a "given" as THE DEALER told us the gun was in a case packed in 47 and he has the paperwork to prove it. Should you disagree with this statement then I think it is only fair you must take the $1,000.00 challenge THE DEALER has put forward and prove this wrong. In this depot is a worker, probably making less than $1.00 a day and has some spare time to have some fun. He has been thinking for weeks how he can financially help someone somewhere in the future and comes up with the idea of marking a few guns with the Nazi stamps he has (unknown to him if stamps are fake or real). He does this with the realization that many many years in the future these guns will have a higher value. This person is not a good communist as he his thinking is capitalist so profit is important for him or someone else. He marks some guns with the expectation that the seller who makes the profit will track him down and share his "booty". And all this time I wondered why communism failed???
