The BSA Martini was purchased in the 1920s used til early 60s by cadets, yours was issued to # 1079 cadet corps in Oct 1923.
Cooey model 82 was made in the 40s for cadets and issued as a DP rifle til the 90s, also made for commercial sale.
Issue M82 will have serial # on bottom of grip and inspectors cartouche on barrel.

Nice Model 12! It looks much like mine except yours seems to be in original condition. Good to know the hardware on mine is very similar. Sadly mine has refinished metal and has a blank stock disc.

Are there any markings on the fore end? Just curious, as I have none.
