Crown marking on BSA made No. 3 T sniper?

Any ideas to the meaning of the crown marking? I only know the FF in a circle from the BSA made rifles, the crown marking is something new for me.

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.

I just noticed that someone else here once had posted pictures of his Irish sniper, which has the same markings too. However, the one in the Knowledge Library icon

doesn't. Any suggestions on that?!

Looks like a standard British icon

inspectors marking to me.

Viewer's mark, shows it conforms to the spec.

Noticing that the rifle in the Knowledge Library icon

doesn't have this marking, would this have any meaning that others have it while the one in the MKL icon

doesn't?
