Manufactured in 1918. "Crown/G.R." cyphered and "1918" dated receiver socket with "27" rebuild date on the left. Matching numbers on the bolt and nose cap, and forend, with the rear sight re-numbered to match.

Fine as arsenal refurbished, retaining much of the finish with light edge wear, a sheared nose cap screw, some minor pitting, light spotting/surface rust, some scattered visible patches of brown patina, and crisp receiver socket markings. The furniture is very good as sanded and re-oiled with some small cracks in the rear handguard, an arsenal splice repair at the rear of the handguard, some light scrapes, and scattered minor dents. The safety lever is broken off, otherwise mechanically fine.
