Parker may be post-war, and that may be why they are not marked. All parts made during the war may have been marked, I'm not really sure, that's something that the experts would know I'm sure. Was all parts made during wartime marked?
    There are some smaller parts but for the most part all genuine USGI WWII carbine parts are marked.

    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.

    Thanks Bill.

    The statement was that "Most parts...are unmarked." False. And the question was presented to Sunray to quantify.

    Yea, I didn't catch the term "most carbine parts". I already knew that most parts were marked, I originally thought sunray said some carbine parts

    Sunray must know it's an erroneous statement that they weren't marked since he hasn't substantiated his statement?

    Of the tiny percentage of unmarked parts, many have assembly queues that ID which Carbine maker they were used on. Even when you find them removed from a Carbine you can still determine which maker it was probably removed from.

    Well, we know there were marked so I don't see any point in beating up Sunray over this.

    It's important that we say we know they're marked, but obviously that message isn't for us. There's a bigger picture. Sunray isn't being beaten up, I was hoping he'd engage in the discussion.
    The bigger picture is about obtaining a resolution for future newb readers looking for answers when they find this site from a search engine, that they get the most concise answer without looking at additional threads anymore where it looks unresolved. It's a relevant site and thankfully we've helped one member's confusion in this thread. When new people stumble here they won't know one way or the other what's right without proper guidance.

    Not saying anyone is, just making a statement just in case it may start to swing that way
