    WRA Cartouche Question

    Does it matter which side the WRA/GHD is on in relation to the cartouche? Opinions on this one, please?

    FYI, this cartouch is on the right side of the stock.

    Thanks

    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.

    Looks good to me too. As far as the WRA/GHD stamp goes, they were almost anywhere of the right side of the stock; above below, to the right or to the left and on some carbines, entirely missing.
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!
