    Help with 91/30 stock marking?

    Scored another Izhevsk , 1944 ex-sniper. Already have one, and having owned 3 more, I had found the meanings of all of the stamps/markings on the net. Or so I thought

    This one has a distinct reverse/backwards "R" stamped on the stock on the right side, below the front of the sight base, almost upside down, with what appears to be a faint "K" below and to the rear? Both in no symmetrical order.

    I can find no info.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    I have seen markings like this on one of my Russianicon rifles, no idea about the meaning, I will see if I can find a photo for illustrative purposes.

    The 'K' is apparently a point of aim proof.

    The ''K'' POA proof would be in a circle and located on the barrel shank.
