Another thought in Birmingham Area and the Black Country where Bell Target was endemic during this period of Time in Birmingham alone there was over 3000 Bell Target Clubs. It could be quite conceivable that the Stock was simply swapped so the Rifle would suit a particular shooter.
The other thought is the same as Lakeys, that it was assembled from parts already in Stock and supplied to LJ at some period of time. you will never know. However a nice piece of History anyway so why worry

Glad to see it’s sold Gareth, hope you’re happy with the price.
I bet the original owners would never dream we’d be speculating on the history of these rifles more than a century later.
It’s been an interesting thread.
Atb,
Matt.
