Hi Everyone.

I need some help identifying a .303
On the right side of the stock is a few stampings.

M.A
Lithgowicon
SMLE
D85496
III* HV

1943

All the numbers match on the rifle, except for two dates, one being 1943 on the stock and 1942 that is stamped on the ring just behind the trigger.

The rifle doesnt have a steel rear sight as i have seen many of the enfield fitted with, but rather it has been fitted with a peep sight of some description.
It would be great if someone could shed some more light on this rifle, as it seems to be just a little outside of most of the descriptions i have read about this rifle.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
