    How to get rid of a cartouch

    I have a rebuild Winchester on Gunbroker I was going to sell it and upgrade to a correct Win that I know is for sale. However I am having second thoughts about selling it. It is a really clean garand. The collector that I got it from has had it for a long time.He got is from a family who had it from the late 50s it was not a DCM rifle. I do not know how they got it. It is a win receiver 1287836 looks like original WW11 finish, chamber is in the white, a 3 45 SA barrel no chrome in the gas port, type 3 lock bar, uncut 9 oprod, bolt D28287-12 SA B-3, trigger group D28290-2 SA, trigger guard C46025 WRA, the hammer is a 6908- 5 SA I strongly suspect that this could possibly be a late WW11 rebuild gun. The only thing wrong is when my friend got it the buttstock looked like someone took a belt sander to it. So he found a beautiful tiger striped walnut post war stock that completely matched the handguards the only problem is some morron stamped a fake EMCF cartouch on it. I have 2 questions is there anyway to steam that fake cartouch out without ruining the original finish? It bugs the heck out of me. and is there anything about the parts that I have described that would preclude it from possibly being a late war rebuild? other then the buttstock? thanks
