Lithgow / Slazenger research.

Hi all.. I am recording serial numbers of the No.1 Slazenger single shot rifles.. I am only interested in those that originally had their number placed under the wood.
I would assume that under current legislation, the serial number would have to be re-stamped above the timber line.
Also doing Sportco rifles
Thanks.. Ken.

My 1B is 193844 but is visible.
Were some stamped under the wood then later restamped where it was visible?

I would have to assume the serial would have to be visable. still waiting to see one as yet..

I don't know about that, does the law require it on firearms made before that time ('68 I think)? Many, many civilian firearms weren't serialised at all back then.
