GRI INDIAN Lee Enfield NO1 MK3 - State of the Rifle

[Devin E33]

Guys,

I wanted to get your opinion on how modified my Ishapore / GRI No1 Mk3 Rifle is currently. Other that have viewed this rifle have told me that this is a factory refurb, or stated that an individual only refinished the stock. The metal has not been refinished, but the stock has been refinished is confusing to me? The stock had been sanded at one time, you can barely make out the SA mark on the side of the stock. The cartouches on the bottom of the stock are very visible and deep. Is the finish accurate? Any help is appreciate on letting me know what I actually have here.

Pics attached from my newly built lightbox....

Thanks,
Devin

Moderator Edit: After you click on images to ENLARGE them, you may find they automatically size smaller in your browser's window making them harder to view. The auto sizing is your browser's way of keeping images entirely within the screen size you have set. Move your mouse pointer to the bottom centre of the pic and you will see an options panel appear. There will be a small square box next to the large X, which will have a pointer arrow sticking out of it. If it's illuminated, it means the pic you're viewing can be enlarged, so click on this box and the pic will EXPAND and open to its normal size. You can then grab the pic with your mouse (hold down left mouse button) and move it around to look more closely at various parts of the photo.
