    I may be wrong but it looks like a Mk3 which has bee made to look like a Mk1, its too short for a Mk1 but looks correct length for a Mk3. The forsight looks like a Mk3 not a Mk1 and the safety lever holes look like that of a Mk3 not a Mk1. I quite like the look of this rifle, its a little diffrent!

    Almost certainly a "Khyber Special".

    The photos on the Other Board show a horrendous home-made attempt at a volley sight disk - so its certainly a Khyber Special, albeit probably with a few genuine bits....
