1950 Enfield longbranch bolt

[lil_juiced_coupe]

Just picked up a practically out of the box 1950 no4 long branch. Wierd thing is the bolt head has no number on it. Seems to be a stamp that could be a "1" off renter on the edge of the bolt.

Is This normal?

Have heard of a few misstamped numbers on LB/CA bolt heads.

It's unlikely to have been changed if the rifle is unissued.

A no1 bolt head would be normal. Should be stamped on the bolt head itself though. Where exactly is it stamped, provide picture?

I have an extremely late serial 1950... it has a 0 bolt head. The bolt on the other hand does not have a serial number. Maybe a quirk on the 50's?
