Disc Identification

**tsquared82** · 06-08-2017 11:09 PM

Hello all,
I am having a mongrel of a time, trying to identify this particular butt stock disc. I've scoured the internet for ages, but to no avail. Any help would be greatly 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.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Could it stand for "Machine Gun Unit"?

I did think of that one F10 but decided not to put it out as have been wrong on a few things of late so dotting the I's & crossing the T's from now on.

Thank you for the information. I saw this for sale and it does have a broad arrow stamp on the rear of it. However, given that I we cannot tie it to any regiment, I think I'll pass on it. I'll post the link here for ebay should any here take an interest to it.
