- Feed System: 10-round detachable box magazine.
- Loading Method: Loaded via two 5-round charger/stripper clips through the top receiver guide.
- Action: Manually operated, rear-locking rotary bolt with a 60-degree throw.
Ballistics & Sights
- Muzzle Velocity: Approximately 2,250 feet per second (690 m/s) using standard Mk VII ball ammunition.
- Rear Sights: Receiver-mounted aperture flip-up ladder.
- Sight Adjustments: Calibrated explicitly from 200 to 800 yards (Unlike the full-sized No. 4 rifle which adjusted up to 1,300 yards).

Design Enhancements
- Muzzle Attachment: Conical flash suppressor with an integrated blade bayonet lug.

Stamping Breakdown
- No5 MK1: Confirms the rifle model configuration.
- ROF (F): Stands for Royal Ordnance Factory Fazakerley, located near Liverpool, England, where the rifle was physically manufactured.
- F T R: Stands for Factory Thorough Repair. This indicates the rifle was sent back to a military arsenal post-production to be completely reconditioned. During an FTR, armorers inspected the action, often replaced worn barrels or dried-out stocks, re-applied the classic black enamel finish, and upgraded worn parts to meet service standard requirements.
- 1/46: The month and year of its refurbishing process (January 1946).
- N5481: The unique production serial number assigned to this particular carbine receiver. The "N" prefix matches perfectly with the standard letter-block sequences utilized by the Fazakerley facility during its 1945–1946 production timeline.
