    Question Looking for N0.4 Mk1 info

    I have exhausted my own abilities and am now needing the assistance of the pros. I am in the grand ole south of the USAicon and have worn out the search option on this machine. maybe i just cant read well enough to find what i am looking for.

    I have now added what i think to be a N0 4 MK1 to my collection. There is very little in the way of matkings on the rifle. There is the import mark and a serial number that can be seen on the barrell. the same number is on the band at the stock. That is about it.

    The markings on the side are so faint i cant read them. My wife says she thinks it says No. 4 Mk1 FA29772A then ROF 8/48

    can any one help with inforamtion about this rifle? When and where was it made? FA29772A?

    is there a way top get the markings to show better?

    I hope to be of help someday as i really enjoy collectign and researching. The enfield is new to me and i knwo this fourm has some great help out there.
    Thanks

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    The FA29772A corresponds with a serial number for a rifle made at the Royal Ordnance Factory - at Fazakerley Englandicon in 1943.
