Nice rifle and nice with the disc. You need to put your sling on the correct way around.

Is the serial number X1825 by any chance? The Royal Navy did have some of their own methods of marking small arms. Let us know what dates you find on the barrel please.

There were both 11th and 2nd Battalions of the Royal Marine Light Infantry, confusing details here: http://www.britisharmedforces.org/li...marine_ww1.htm

Sorry for the late answer.
No serial number X1825 as far as I can see, and the only date I found on the barrel is '42.
