Just to confirm Thunderboxes post. I have a D/A 1944 Longbranch No4 MK1*/2. Stamping is (FTR)F48. Which I understand to be an upgrade at Fazakerly. Enfield stamped new woodwork was fitted as well. Then it apprears to have gone into BA storage. Near the front sight there are some new parts stamped 1967. This rifle was D/A in 2006 by Terry Abram. Nice to have an old rifle that you can just about trace it's history. Due to the method of deactivation I can't see if it still has the original two groove barrel but it still has a LB stamped steel butt plate.

Kind regards, Lester
