Looks fine to me. Nice looking set up.
Does the stock wrist have the scope serial # on it?

Get Peter Laidler's book on Ts. An Armorer's Perspective..,I forgot full title). The book is the gold standard on No4 MKI T collecting. Look around on the enfield sticky list-there is considerable Laidler info.
You will really enjoy this book. I did.

As well as reading Peter's book, there are a couple of articles I remember on-line entitled "is my No4T a fake?" (or something similar).

Article you're referring to is contained within the MKL entry for the 1944 No.4(T) mentioned above ...

If you're trying to compare markings, they are essentially the same ..

You don't need photos as you've one right there. Scope is not what was originally issued, that would have been a No.32 Mk.I. I think the Indians got many of the WWII "fielded rifles" after the war, whilst the unissued ones tended to remain in England. Saved on rebuilding costs!
Yours never got the pad screws staked, Which indicates it left early on.
I wouldn't try to "improve" anything that isn't broken, it just got used! Finding the exact scope with which it was issued is rather unlikely, but you never know!

You've got an early BSA. It looks to be a good example. The scope however is incorrect for the year and most likely belongs to a 1945 rifle. You could advertise in EE for a trade for an early Mk1 scope and bracket. Many early brackets were never serialized to the rifle so you would be more correct. Ron
