Default Carrier Fasteners

I have a couple of questions:
I pulled some bits of a Canadian hull (U.C.MkI*)
The bolts were the usual BSF threads, but they were hybrid fasteners in that the hex sizes were made to UNF / UNC (USA) spanner sizes.
Was this std. practice right through Canadian Carrier production?

Question two.
I have a quantity of BSF (carrier original bolts) with three "C" evenly embossed on the heads.
Anyone know the origin of these? Canadian, or a particular British manufacturer?
