Slight correction, the barrel should be 40 inches long. P53 Enfields were 39 inches.

DOH!

Right you are, I knew that but.....

jayveesea, more pictures would be very helpful, especially a full length photo of the entire gun and small details and if you have time.

here are a couple more photos with some markings i have found. i acquired the gun disassembled, so all i have at this point are pictures of individual parts. are there specific markings i should look for?
