So here's the markings of an SPF Lithgow from my collection, as additional reference.

I've still yet to see SPF marking on the receiver on any other example?

Gezz I need to proof read my replies! Reads like I had been drinking. Sad thing is I hadn't LOL.

If anyone else has a SPF marked rifle add your number and the Year of assembly and I'll expand the list, ohhh and calibre in case yours is a .22

For Kev, although body and TMH aren’t matching serial numbers,

TMH : SPF 1950 AD71

Body : UB60A**** ( I bet the matching body to the above is one of these rare .22 ones , just my luck ??)

Evening Geoff, as this is clearly a composite build, we can guarantee the kit came from Helstons, my guess would be the barrel maker ( whoever he is) had a barrel that he had issues with and couldn't be used for full bore, hence gorilla gluing a .22 liner in permanently to create this build.

I would love to see a picture with the handgurds off, I will guarantee it's not to correct L1A1 profile.
