FTR Serial Numbers

[pedro243]

Yeah sorry about the photo.

Thanks for that. That is interesting because i always thought the serial number was the long one and the FTR serial number was the short 1.

If a rifle has been FTR'd, do they always have a stamp to show it?

Sorry about all the questions

Rifles FTR'd at Lithgow during the 50's were stamped FTR on the top of the action and MA and a date on the lower left side of the butt socket. Rifles refurbed during the late 40's or post war were only stamped R over MA and a date on the butt to my knowledge. There may be exceptions.
