Probable Service information about a Savage No 4 MK 1*

[Brian Dick]

There’s nothing confusing about it. It’s a simple task to file it off and refinish. I doubt it was done by a military Armourer as it wasn’t allowed because the rifles weren’t UK property. That being said, I’ve seen a few with it filed off over the years. Whoever converted it and refinished it is most likely the culprit.
