    Lee-Enfield NOS British Chargers with G M VI markings - Question

    I just recently bought 12 Lee-Enfield Chargers that were described as NOS (from the 40's) Britishicon Chargers.

    They look like unused Mk III Chargers (5 side holes) and the parkerizing is rather rough.

    Markings : G M VI on one side.

    Question : Anyone familiar with those British (really ?) Chargers and their unknown to me markings ?

    TIA

    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.

    They sound like the Italianicon production ones I have. For me it took a fair bit of sanding on the inside of the chargers to make it function at all.
