All,

Looking for some help on what I have. I know it’s a Lee Enfield but after hours of research still am not sure of things like original date or where it was manufactured, etc. I know that the nose cap, bolt, receiver and sight serial numbers all match. 54045 Z on all of them. I also see several other markings such as No1 MkIII and FR ‘42. I also believe this is from India due to the crown over GRI and ISA with an arrow stamped into the wood butt. I do not see any original date anywhere. The date is nowhere to be found. It’s completely smooth metal and doesn’t look like it was ever ground out where it would normally be but paced. Really curious on when it was originally produced and if it really is from India as it doesn’t have the screw a lot of folks mention. Any help is greatly appreciated.
