Another No4 MK1

[jls77]

Thanks for the input guys & Merry Christmas.
Unfortunately the stock has been cut down & yes there is some sort of five round replacement mag. This one was given to me years ago & I just dug it out of the closet for research. Now I have some more info to go on.

Thanks,
JLS

It looks as though it's had some marking milled off at the rear of the body. Has it?

It clearly hasn't been back for a FTR (or re-arsenaled as you wild savage colonials say.....) as we'd have sifted out the A suffix rifles out. But don't place too much store in the type of backsight fitted. Because while the Mk2 and 3 and variations were obsolescent, they were not obsolete. So while they were still serviceable, they remained in service. The flip-over and fabricated sights were on service rifles right up until the end and by then, they'd probably all been to Field and Base workshops lots of times

Fazakerley and Liverpool....., city of culture and home of Triumph Dolomite and TR7 sports cars.............. Anyone ever admit to owning one? I saw a mis-print in the newspapers here, describing them as sports CANS instead of sports CARS. maybe they were correct after all!

Peter we also had a rather good factory produceing a very good rifle indeed my grandfather worked there during WW11 as a room foreman, The triumph was replaced by ford and now Jaguar not a bad progression.
