Goo, it looks like some of the Korean stenciling we have seen in years past, but it doesn't contain any Korean alphabet I can discern. Probably not anything more than some country's rack numbers, but I can't tell which one.
It could be American, but I am sure someone will chime in and offer us some better idea than mine.
To me looks like a bad stenciling job!
USMC-1 159 ?

HHC 1 -159
Headquarters and Headquarters Company 1st Battalion 159th (whatever type of unit)

Yep, should put it up on Gun Broker. Civil War rifle, probably carried by Grant himself! :rofl:
