Korean (?) ID Tag on Carbine Stock
Just opened a box of stocks and found a Type III OI Inland stock with the Korean Rack numbers painted on the right rear.
Common enough I know....But this is the first I've run across with a label still stuck to it under the forearm. I've had a few before like this that had the tape residue still left there, but no tag.
In the pictures you can see the bottom of the pistol grip bears the number 254, which can be seen on the column on the right.
Near the oiler you'll see the number 2.5. This can be seen on the tag at the bottom of the right column.
I plan to pull off the tape and see if anything is written on the underside of the label.
Anyone run across this before?
BTW, it's marked OI in the slingwell, 1 partial P stamp on the front of the grip and what looks to be a faint Ordnance Wheel left under the painted on Rack numbers. No Armory Depots stampings.

This last one shows where I've started to pull the tape from the top corner,
