1893 LSA MkII Metford

[Surpmil]

It looks as though sale marks(?) were filed out of the barrel ring and Nock's Form and then restamped. Could this rifle have gone out of service pre-WWII and then been "recalled" for that conflict?

Don't know, NZ often ground before stamping sale marks, i had a near mint Lithgow that had been ground.
