    Indian 4T

    Hallo all.

    Does anyone know the meaning of the abbreviation CPJO?

    I have seen very few of these "Indian sniper" (with the CPJO mark) and all have S.N. in the range 5715X(X).

    Any info is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks. Giancarlo

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.

    I also have one or two so marked and apparently it is a police force in India
    Does your scope match the rifle??
    If not send me a PM as I did find one that I had the scope for but the owner refused to to the swap???
    All I wanted was another scope in reasonable shape for the one matching his rifle bit it was a no deal on his part ??

    The scope does not match the rifle, but it isn't mine. It is in a gun shop.

    Bracket contours look like a current chinese repro that has been worked over.

    The bracket seems original to me.

    I think it probably is an original Rose Brothers bracket, but I can see what Lee Enfield is getting at. The main horizontal 'strut' of the bracket looks rather too wide (more like a Dalgleish product), & is not slightly tapered as they typically are. Apart from that it looks Bog standard RB to me. I wonder if it could be an effect of the light/camera angle or some such??

    It looks very similar to this to me. Or am I wrong?

    Here is what I was looking at - it seems the hardest contour to hide for the fakers.
