I have a early Henry in the 1000 serial number range that has EIG initials and a arrow pointing towards the muzzle end on the receiver and on the barrel. Has anyone ever seen this before? The rifle is in poor condition so anything is possible. Thanks

Its a British military Broad Arrow proofmark.

Is that very typical for a Henry? I had never seen that before. Thanks
