As the stock on my carbine is now warped to the point of uselessness, I bought another. This is from Saginaw, marked RSG in the sling well.

The right sight bears GSA in a rectangular cartouche. Or is it CSA?
Attachment 45732
I only have the Riesch book, which does not include this marking. Can anyone identify it?
The butt is clearly marked with AB-SEC.
Attachment 45731
Can anyone interpret AB-SEC? Or the unclear white stencil at top left?
Finally, top and bottom of the neck there are hand-painted markings

Any help in identifying these markings would be much appreciated. My normal attitude to painted-on markings is: remove them. In this case, however, I am being a little more cautious - maybe they really do tell us something of its history?
So before I get out the paint stripper - any opinions?Information
