| No I do not believe there is, never seen any reference to one. Why do you ask? |

| My rifle says III, then a worn character. Almost looks like a S.

| If it is worn, might it be the No.1 Mk.III*? The '*' indicates some improvement - can't recall offhand what though. Never seen mention of an 'S'.

| The No1 Mk III was modified in during WW1 to the No1 Mk III*. The modifications were wartime manufacturing simplifications that included removal of the magazine cutoff and volley sights. |
