Thread: Proof marks on a P14

The military proof mark is sideways in the lower left of the first pic. It’s a crown above GR then crossed flags and a P. It has A BNP proof at 90 degrees obliterating the P. The BNP and other muzzle end markings were added when it was sold out of service. They were not standard military proof requirements. The marks just left of the RE might be a very faint inspectors mark. That would normally be a crown with a number under and a letter under that.

The Arrow with a dot under is the British acceptance mark.

Actually, I think your CVA is the inspectors stamp. It’s half a crown, with something else under, and the A under that, parts lost in the curvature of the receiver.
