    No1mk3 Heavy barreled sporter

    Picked this up off a relative and would like to know all I can about it.

    From what I can tell, 1916 Lithgowicon mk3 with cutoff slot, converted to Heavy barrel in June 1935??

    Unfortunately sporterized but fortunately the barrel was not cut and is in excellent condition with shiny sharp rifling.

    A T01 mount was neatly installed along with an optic I can find no information on.

    Any info, comments, questions are welcome.

    I fired some mk8 ammo and from a sitting position shot a 3" 3 shot group at 100y.

    I will have it out again soon and will try a more stable position and follow up with a range report.
