    That's a beauty alright. Very rare to find the sight cover still in place. This is the regiment the disc is marked to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8th_Ca...ess_Louise%27s)

    Considering how crisp the stampings in the stock are, the way the disc sits proud of the surrounding wood surprises me. Usually you see that when the stock and markings are heavily worn or sanded, but I doubt it's anything but original. The sold out of service marks are common on these.

    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
