Milsurps / Prohib Lee Enfield question

New to milsurp. Need help with:

  1. Identifying this rifle. I thought this is Lee Enfield No4 Mk2 but stamps on the receiver and bolt seem to be different

  2. Zeroing front sight. I saw YouTube videos people loosening the front screw to move the front sight but mine seems to have none.

  3. Is my rifle missing anything in the rear sight ? How do you set the elevation ?

  4. Is there anything this rifle seems to be missing ?

The major indicator of a No4 Mk 2 is that the trigger is hung on the receiver rather than the trigger guard. As mentioned everything here points to a late Mk 1, just before the changes to the Mk 1*. After Dunkirk, the Brits rapidly simplified the No 4 to produce them more quickly. I would imagine this rifle may also have a two groove barrel as well.
