Thanks for all the information and yes I see that it is not a Lee Enfield as I was told and after handling a few Enfields today.I saw the difference. So we all think it is a P14..Okay. I am slightly confused as to whether it is a modified Enfield or Springfield? there was a lot of onformation.
I just want to know what to ask for when locating the stock parts...that's all.

Yes he "Dad" took good care if it and it was purchased here in vancouver either at the three Vets or Army and navy when they actually sold surplus!
Thank you for the kind words and I would like to restore it to it's youth!

He didn't do the modifications but I fear that the way the front of the stock was cut and shaped that the front lower piece of wood may not be able to fit?

The dates... I was not sure of either as I see the date in the red box as 18-5 so May 1918 or is it the circled '16 and then 18 as the day and may as the month? there are several crowns as well tow in the picture another on the side of the chamber both have the BNP with a crown over it as well the Broad arrow.

I will try to find some more info on it. If anyone needs better pics to help fill in the gaps please don't hesitate to ask.


PS this link that was sent in a post... ( http://m1903.com/m1917markings.htm) did not seem to work for me...is it correct? thanks Casey
