WW2 US rifle case?

[BurtonP]

I've recently acquired a number of soft rifle cases, many of them military, and among them are these two. They have similarities to the carriers for US 1903 Springfield, which is what makes me think they're US. One is dated 1942, and the other possibly 1945, but other than an 1162 stamp on both there are no other markings. They are cotton canvas webbing with leather trim. Strangely, they are different lengths, so one may have been modified/repaired.



Does anyone recognize them?
