    Swedish M96 unit markings disk?


    Can anyone provide information about which unit this rifle was issued to based on the brass stock marking disk?
    Thanks.

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.

    It looks like it went to the 1st Company of the 13th Infantry.

    Thank you. Do rifle with this marking disk have any more intrinsic value over the bore condition marker disk rifles?

    I would say maybe a little, but not much. There are too many other factors most collectors look at. All things being equal, I would pay a little more for the unit disk, and I think they're cool, but I'm not paying more than a modest upcharge. You tend to see them more on the m/94s and m/94-14s than on the m/96s, presumably because those m/96s made multiple trips through Swedishicon arsenals over a period of years.
