The Cypriot "Jungle Carbine" Query

[spinecracker]

Yes, Maltby No.4 Mk.1*s exist, but it was apparently a marking error - the rifles are No.4 Mk.1s with the separate bolt release catch, not the slot as seen on Long Branch and Savage No.4 Mk.1*s.

The marking I'm interested in is the ' No4 MkI " ' marking which I've observed on @10-12 Brit No4MkI rifles.

Anyone have an explanation for the ' " ' marking?
