LTD for The Society of Miniature Rifle Clubs (S.M.R.C.), all of which is stamped on the left side of the receiver along with the Society's crest.

The right side of the stock carries additional original cartouches & stampings including the '' WD Enfield'' manufacturer roundel, the Mark II stamping & a ''!'' designating it as a class one weapon intended for frontline infantry combat. The metal blue finish has toned to a blue/brown tone with 85% overall coverage & with some speckling. Right side of receiver has original markings Crown over ''V.R.'', ''ENFIELD'', ''1874'', proof mark, ''II'': Left side stamped as previously listed.
