I recently bought a 1918 peddled scheme SMLE MkIII* .22 trainer.
It is not marked No2MkIV* but appears to be that specification. It has a one piece .22 barrel; not sleeved.
What I do find unusual is that it has a steel butt plate fitted; which has a brass cleaning trap.
Was the steel butt plate standard on the peddled scheme rifles?
