Jungle Carbine poll please look if you own one

With the exception of the proof marks on top of the barrel in front of the top wood, the following are the marks I've found on mine;
- Metal cap.
- On the bottem of the forend in the wood behind the cap "713" faintly marked.
- "No. 5. Mk. 1." marked on the left side of the receiver.
- On the left side of the band "England"
"1945"
and on top of the England it looks like "M4" was stamped. Below, very faintly it looks like "BF 5189"
- On the bottem side of the stock in the wood beside the trigger guard "T".
- On the left side of the front sight guard, "M/470"
- Last but not least,(serial# correction) "BF 5189", matching the # on the back of the bolt handle. Opps.
I've just recently acquired it at the gun show in Duncan this past weekend and have yet to shoot it.
- Oh, on the base of the front sight, "N67" on oen side of the blade and "03" on the other side. I have just taken a picture I can send if you wish, if you PM me your e-mail address. My posting skills...............
