Lee enfield no4 mk1/3 US Property

[billy67]

Hi,
Just recieved a sporter lee enfield no4 mk1/3 Savage US property.
Rifle has been FTR in 53. The barrel has 5 grooves and different serial, other than that, the trigger group obviously has been moved to a MK2. The mag is also matched serial but instead of a C its a 0 (error??). Id like to get more inputs or info about the rifle.
First, Id like to know how many no4 mk1 Savage has been mk1/3 ? Any other info that stamps brings up ?
Another thing, I also have a mk1/2 Maltby and wondering whats the difference between mk1/2 and mk1/3 ?
I plan to restore the rifle and bring her back to full military configuration. I hope she's a good potential for being restored ??

Again, thanks for your inputs
