Stock manufacturer

[newcastle]

On my m14 there is under the butt trap, on the hinge side, a "U" in a square stamped into the wood. Outside of a "P" and a "P" in a circle, both underneath and behind the trigger guard this is the only stamp i can se without dissasembling. Does this indicate any specific stock manufacturer?

Cant swear to it - could maaaaybe be an S if I turn it 90 degrees - guess ill have to strip it and see if there's anything else marked.

Does your stock have this stamp ?

Is that an Israeli marking?
