No4 Mk1 Markings

**dtownsend** · 02-24-2013 04:19 PM

I just bought a no4 mk1 and cant figure out what the markings mean, other than that it was made in 1943. The receiver has the letter "C" above the number "35" with a circle around it.

the band above the trigger has "1943" on top and the serial number at the bottom but in between is what appear to be "^H".

any information on these markings would be appreciated.

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. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Looks like another Maltby rifle. "A H" is the serial number prefix.

Yes, I'm sure Steve is correct. The somewhat indistinct marking immediately before the date on the butt socket is the stylised letter 'M' for ROF Maltby in South Yorkshire, UK icon
