"ZF" marking on Enfields?

[Son]

I would have to agree that at the very least your butt plate has been replaced as Long Branch No4’s came with ether a Blued steel or zamac (sp.?) one. Is your butt stock LB marked? Also to the best of my knowledge Canadian FTR’s were not painted with Suncorite. The 4 or 5 in my collection are all Park’ed. In 1943 the original finish would have been blued.

The buttplate is brass. There are a few confused marks in the back of the trap, the only marks on the plate itself are on the inside, between the screw hole and butt trap. It has an inset "F" and a raised "FI" below.

The butt has B over 56 and the C with the broad arrow in it directly behind the trigger guard underneath.

You can see my confusion- the butt ZF marking, all original '43 parts (except butt and plate?) no FTR or even repair markings, but painted with suncorite and still greased!

Late British tidy up (paint- hence my Q for Peter...) - butt and buttplate replaced from the used parts box before sale?
Who knows-
Who cares I suppose... It looks very nice.
