IDENTIFICATION REQUIRED,GUN FROM MIDDLE EAST MOSTLY BEDOUIN OR SAUDI ARABIA

In the middle east, markings have nothing to do with mfg. Yes, the font of the maker name looks modern. That doesn't mean it's not an English made gun. I've seen several Royal Afghan mfg. rifles, that have been scrubbed, and English markings added. Done I guess, to appeal more to the GIs. I was going by the fact that the lock looks English, and the trigger guard is heavily made military, not the sheet metal guards you usually see on these type guns. And I could be wrong.
