The tag said No.4 Mk.1......is it?

[Peter Laidler]

Immediate Post war Factory Thorough Repaired at the old ROF Maltby. This is quite unusual as the factory had cesaed production of rifles and they wanted to keep the place handy to see how things panned out. ROFM did a small amount of FTR work. Alas, as they really only manufactured a small amount of stuff but were really an assembly factory, output and progress was slow so it soon got (was the first to get) the chop. Looks like an old ROF 6 Fazakerley rifle. The foresight blade way over to the side exceeds the lateral limit allowable and the barrel is therfore unserviceable or at least needs examining to see if anything else might be causing it.

Apologies if this extra info isn't what you asked for but I had my wrist slightly slapped recently for doing so but if it's not, just ignore it
