Trying to trace history on my SMLE?

[SIMONJF]

I own PF41397 and it was made at the Royal Ordnance Factory - Fazakerley in September of 1948. It is one of the last in the No.4 Mark 1 configuration as the No.4 Mark 2 started being made in April 1949.

Mine has the South African Ownership Mark which is shown below:

Beyond the ownership marks there is little else to identify the history of the rifle.

Thanks Amatikulu, I am from across the Pond in Nottingham (yeah I know - Robin Hood Country). Our respective Ser Nos and dates do certainly correspond, there are 2 strange markings on the breech top I cant identify. See enclosed pic which is very high resolution, - any ideas? Errrm oh great - Milsurp cant upload my photos cus there too big - well theyre makro pics so that detail can be seen. Huh - would u be good enough to give me ur email ad. (i am simonjfreeman@hotmail.com) I would love to see some of your pics and how you got the rifle.
