I have tended not to comment on this section of the Forum as it is a while since I dabbled in these things. I do however have to agree with others comments about this piece. There are a number of relatively obvious "errors" which suggest NOT of English make, and I do feel not of factory manufacture either. I use the term "factory" to describe what those in Europe understand as a place of firearms manufacture.
IF there are any proof marks present then at best I would think a put together piece using available parts from other guns.
Don't be disheartened as we have all (if we are truthful) been caught like this at some time. It is how we learn..................
