Somewhat of an anomaly: a pre-World War I serial number, but with a post World War I style double set trigger. Also, a post WW I Type A stock. I suppose the rifle could have been sent back to the factory for an upgrade after the war, but Type A's were meant for export, so that doesn't really make sense either.
A nice looking rifle, in any case.
Please excuse the Newbie to Type A & B's question but what features are on an A stock rather than a B stock?
And am I correct that Type A usually had a different set of sights to the ones used here?
