US PROPERTY were stamped on enfields produced in the Savage Arms factory in the United States from 40-44. They were part of the Lend-Lease Act between the UK and US. These are typically seen on the No.4 Mk.1 models, the SMLE (Mk. IIIs) were the WW1 model.
So basically we helped to arm Britain and the commonwealth countries but we smeared our logo on the reciever. beer:
Please keep this in mind, a No.4 Mk.1 is not an SMLE. If you call it an SMLE arround enfield buffs they will make fun of you. happy:
