Ishapore 1941 SMLE

[Hambone]

Guys,
What do you think about this? I've had a heckuva time finding a straight up WW2 Ishapore, matching. IMHO, many have been "restored" by the Col. I think the bands on the stock are perhaps cadet or unit indicators? No screw, "No.4" forend brackets, and the stock ISA is WW2 correct I believe. The font on the bolt looked a little odd at first until I did a close comparison and it looks like the same on the receiver and rear sight leaf. The Col. seemed to mostly use ANSI type dies for his "restorations". Appreciate the feedback.
Regards,
HB
