GPM.
And yes it has been out in the bush.

Grandpamack, No Broard arrows and no Date on either side or the V1 or whatever. I have in my possession A couple of Martini`s one in 450/577 and a .303 Carbine with Broard arrow marks. The .303 has the usual 1881 & 1896 (from memory) denoting when it was made in 450/577 and then the referb to .303 on the other side. This one I was asking about has nothing except a few proof marks that I cannot distinguish and the Nitro Proofed, that's it.
