Questions About My 1943 LB No. 4 Mk 1*

[stencollector]

It was more about Peter explaining that all CDN rifles were demanded back at war's end. There was a directive that may or may not have been followed to the letter...it's here in the LE forum...

It wasn't all Canadian rifles that were to be returned, it was all C/l\ marked equipment including small arms that were to be returned. The C/l\ mark was a property mark. There were small arms made in Canada that were simply /l\ marked if they were made on British contract.

Further to the S.M.C. magazine follower. I just found a small part on my SMLE Mk III* with the same mark. Part 19, the retaining spring on the right side of the action body.

Is this Singer Manufacturing Co. in Kilbowie, Clydebank, Scotland, the UK branch of Singer Sewing Machine? They did a lot of war work during WW2.

Roger that, makes sense. The other thread is still going, we should have done a whole thread about return of equipment...too.
