His rifle looks like a cut down SMLE mk. III to me. Note the charger bridge and the remains of a handguard in front of the backsight.

Great picture.

Woftam, Many thanks for providing the coastwatcher links! Mention of two watchers with my family name (Mason) was quite exciting.

Take Care, Brad

No problem Brad, glad you enjoyed it. Any chance the blokes mentioned were in your family tree ?

Take Care, Brad
