Its a GR, BSA. Has some markings proof of George Rex and broad arrows. In particular I have doubts about two marks. A mark of GR with a letter B below, the letter looks different as something stylized, similiar to an Arabic character. The other mark is the bolt that says EFD, the only thing I found about it is that it refers to the factory at Enfield Lock. Maybe you or someone has some information about this or other details of the source and destination.
I add some photos of the markings.
Thank You

The stylised B is a Bsa mark, so no worries there. never seen that mark on the charger bridge before(CAI AI R VT) is that a unit mark or an import stamp for Argentina?
