    Welcome to the forum...what you have is a set of rifles that were professionally sporterized after service. There were several companies that did this and there were three grades. The grade one is re-polished and new sporter wood, with checkering, grade two is less finish done but new wood and the third is just cut down and standard sights. You have a Canadian Long Branch, made in Canadaicon and a Savage which was US made. Both common and as normal drilling and tapping for scopes is common. Considering this was usually done with brand new rifles, they should give a lifetime of service...matter of fact, I was out shooting my grade one this morning. And a model of 1912 Savage .22...
    Regards, Jim
