In reply to:

After the charging lion sequence, it was identifiable as a sidelock, but appeared to be the conventional pattern rather than the characteristic dipped-edge Lancaster trademark.





I reckon the rifle in the Lion Charge scene.......

Unlike the lockplates on a Charles Lancaster, which are usually described as "Leg o' Mutton"....





....as shown on this rifle from Lancaster's 1924 catalogue.
