Enfield No4 (T) N92 scope bracket

[husk]

Good Day,
My wife and I attended a local flea market (boot sale) on Sunday afternoon. Its a monthly two day event and rarely has any firearm related parts to speak of. As we drove there, I even commented to her that everything had already likely been picked over but it was a nice day to spend a few hours together. About halfway through I saw a table with a few items of military clothing and a small "junk" box with bits and bobs. I moved aside most of it (old shotgun parts, misc springs, other broken items, etc) and there it was. I hardly could believe it as I picked it up and asked the seller- how much? He looked at it and said "just some old M14 scope mount, how about $20?" My wife looked at me and said later that I had a LOUSY poker face as I paid him.
Please confirm that I have an original bracket made by Dalglish of Glasgow, Scotland. It has a wartime code of N92 stamped under the left front ring. If correct, it was originally mated to rifle number E35656 (struck thru) and later reissued to I2823. The rings on the right side are marked P431 and P432 respectively. Its not perfect as someone milled or faced the front of the mount. I can only assume it was to true it to the longitudinal axis of the bracket. That makes the length from the front of the forward ring to the back of the rear ring 3.672 inches. Would someone be kind enough to measure their bracket and tell me how much that shaved off the normal length? I doubt it but there is any chance this was a military approved modification?
Regards,
Michael

I seem to remember that you have one or two No4T rifles, eh?

I have a few British snipers but they are in longterm storage and I don't have access to them. :-(
