    Elevation knob marking Horshoe Nail???

    Years ago I had a three letter marking on a Garandicon elevation knob. I thought someone told me it stood for horse shoe nail inc. or some such thing. Anyone remember anything like this?

    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.

    Ah, yes, but what were the actual letters? Seems it was strange to me to have a name like that.
