-------------- So, if you can't register online using an * every Lee Enfield No1MkIII* or No4Mk1* or any other UK firearm using a * to denote it's a modified version from the original pattern forces you have to phone in and can't register online. I have one word for that, stats with F and ends in K and the middle two letters reference the UK (well UC but you get the idea). Jeysus Christ on a motorbike, that's circa 100,000 firearms by itself...

Ahhhh, the joy of leaving projects like this to the brains trust...

You're well overthinking it. If the online form lets you put a "*" in it then just put the "*" in it and call it a day. I'd even go so far to not even worry about the "*" at all if you can't enter it. Just call the damn thing a SMLE MKIII or Enfield No4MKI etc and done.
