This fine Jungle Carbine was "Produced by the Santa Fe Division Golden State Arms Corporation, 1948 STandard" stamped on left side of barrel. Left side of chamber stamped "BNP" with crown. Left side of receiver band stamped "England JA204I6A". Finely finished walnut stocks with no visible stamps, with two plug sling repair at bottom of toe. Military rear sight is stamped "Mk II". Built on SMLE Mk III actions rather than No. 4 rifle actions and look like Australian No. 6 rifles. The barrels are shortened to 19" and fitted with No. 5 rifle flash hiders. The fore-end is shortened military, and the buttstock is standard SMLE, with brass buttplate and brass marking disk. Duller military style blue finish. Stocks are beautifully refinished. Fine bore and action. Interesting, as manufactured, with many original parts for shootable Jungle Carbine. Comes with sling.
