Thats cool.

Here is an HRA that I found. The shame is its a nicely looking tiger striped stock.

I like the oddly stamped stocks also.

It was a Monday morning when the inspector stamped that one. Not enough coffee and grabbed the stamped with it turned 90 deg right.

Here's another one upside down 3/8 DAS

.....you would know that someone had to work hard to screw up even this little bit. The stamps are not like the ones we see advertised on eBay but a hefty five pound or so item that is held in a treadle (foot) operated machine, so the stamp had to be inserted in the machine at 45* or 90* from the usual position to get proof marks that were wrong like these.

I guess these are proof positive that even craftsmen can have a bad day. Still interesting and just as correct as a "perfect" stamp.:beerchug:
