Savage No4 Mk1* in Pakistani Service
Hey first post here, thought it would be a good place to get a question about identification answered.
Just picked up a Save No4 from Joe's Sports in Renton Washington. Other than the dirt its in decent shape. US Property is clearly visible, the "S No4 Mk1*" is a little hard to read, some pitting in that area but it is obvious what it is. Serial # is 67C60*** so around late 1943-1944 manufacture I think.
There is what appears to be a either an elaborate "C" or a Crescent moon stamped on the left side of the reciever farther towards the barrel from the "S" mark. There is also a "P" on the magazine which appears to be painted rather than blued and does not match the bolt or the reciever S/N. Old S/N is scratched out and my rifle's S/N next to it.
I can't find what the Pakistani government marks are and I don't own an Enfield book but I think I may soon. Anybody have any idea what these marks might mean?
Any help is appreciated.
Gee

Hey thanks, but I didn't see anything on that site or any other site that matches what I see. To me it looks like a Savage that was sent to Pakistan for military service where it was refurbished and some parts replaced.
Thats the best I can figure right now, but I can't find the evidence to back that up.
