    Long Branch buttplate subcontractor ID

    An acquaintance owns a 1943 Long Branch. The inside surface of the buttplate's trapdoor bears a cast-in marking on the inside surface.
    It is basically a circle with points at 2, 6 and 10 o'clock, inside of which the letters P and C are intertwined.

    Does anybody have an idea on who made this buttplate?

    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.
