you missed the markings that would be most helpfull.

But there is one picture that is a little red x for me so perhaps you did take a good photo of the markings on the butt socket

I'm going to take a wild stab at this one and say its a SSA peddle scheme rifle :D
 
Agreed.
If you look at the receiver on either side of the cocking piece, is either SSA or NRF stamped?
 
SSA is "Standard Small Arms" if i recall correctly, one of The two Peddle Scheme factories where smle rifles were assembled from parts made in many other places. Not too many of these around, good find!
 
Very nice markings on that one. Did you guys notice the rear sight has the windage adjustment despite the rifle being marked as a * model ?

No cut off slot though.
 
SSA did not manufacture all the parts for a rifle. They made bodies, some other parts, so rifles were assembled with parts from other suppliers.
The safety spring is late Australian pattern.
 
the peddle scheme was set up to assemble rifles from parts, parts came from all the different manufacturers and were then assembled into rifles.

SSA produced rifles in 1916-1918 when it was shut down / taken over by government because of poor management and the renamed NRF

not the rarest find but close, also nice that its matching,
 
actualy SSA never produced complete rifles. Just barrels, recievers, barrel bands, trigger guards and some other small bits. BSA supplied the rest and made the complete rifle.
