Last one gents , really appreciate all the info
What do you guys make of the 2 sets of numbers in the stock? The “AM” etched in the barrel and the stamp inside the butt plate you guys think thats legit?
The ink stamp under the butt plate is the manufacturers acceptance and legit. AM is most likely the steel lot code for quality control and part of the 'barrel code'. I think the 7221 in the barrel channel is probably spurious and the serial might well be 52191g. Not sure on that last part because it's hard for me to read even zoomed and with a loupe.
