    Question Knox Form Markings

    Well, I've be delving into the Ian Skennertonicon books to decypher the markings on my new acquisition but hit a roadblock with some markings on the Knox Form. The letters V.S.M and numbers 360 are stamped on it and I can't find these markings anywhere. I am assuming they may have been stamped on there post Sale out of Service?

    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.

    Thanks browningautorifleicon! Makes perfect sense. Assuming the 360 is the manufacturier serial number?
