Enfield No4 Mk1 markings

I'm not sure I understand you. If someone were to be rude an insolent to someone asking a question that would make them an a**hole. I didn't think there were to many of them on here.

If that person asking the question was a long time member, asking a question answered by the search function, or a question easily answered through reference material or by google then perhaps it could be mentioned to them to try that next time.

I did research to the best of my ability using all above mentioned resources and wasn't able to positively identify the rifles history. I decided to post on here admitting defeat to my fellow CGN'rs in my efforts and hoping the vast library of the collective CGN minds could assist me, which they did. I don't think I'm completely research retarded as I helped a friend identify his No4 just recently.

I would hope that any one on here could do the same without ridicule.

Well said.
 
Sorry for the misunderstanding. There is no sarcasm or 'leg pulling' font on the internet. And I have learned to never take internet postings personally.

At work I often joke when I pay a compliment or do a favour on a Monday, that my good deed for the week has been done and now I can be a jerk. Of course that is never true because I try hard to be as collegial and supportive of others as possible. As far as CGN goes, I have found that with firearms knowledge, everyone can learn something new every day. Then we need to share our knowledge and lessons as forthrightly as possible because new people join the conversation regularly. The interweb is both the best resource available and the most dangerous. (wink and a gun finger)
