I recently purchased a sporterized Enfield .303. The gun came sans sights, with a scope mount, shortened and free-floated barrel, and shortened stock (no barrel band). It has also been arsenal refurbished, and has been reblued and had the stock sanded down and re-coated.
Examination of the bolt revealed the following markings, in the usual place:
The first number is slightly difficult to read, but it looks like, "N.57.MK.2"
or possibly "N.67 MK.2"
I have never heard of anything other than a Mark I-V in a SMLE. What does this mean?
It also came without a magazine, I believe the aftermarket one I purchased was for a Mk. III.
