Providing military equipment and supplies to allies, friends, supporters and dependents is a way of extending and projecting power. So yes it is an acceptance mark (the arrow) and where the date on the barrel significantly post dates the date on the receiver it is indicative of rebarrelling, but it is the date of manufacture and acceptance of the barrel, not reissue of the rifle, in my view.

R.A.O.C. It appears to me that the barrel has Enfield inspections stamps (crown number over E) whereas one would expect a 1915 BSA rifle to have been originally fitted with a BSA barrel (crown number over B ) as shown on the receiver of the rifle (on original pic no2 below the proof which is actually on the receiver). This included altering the profile of the rear sight bed, re graduating the dial sight and altering the magazine plate and cases. Places that will have the serial information is on the bolt, receiver and normally the barrel. I do not believe any "strengthening" was involved it was to do with sighting (as the extract you quote shows)so HV indicates sighted for the MkVII "high velocity" round.
