    What was the serial number range/date range for forged bullet guide with relief cuts? Did these type of guides overlap with forged uncut bullet guides?

    Post war replacement I believe. The war time BGs should not have the relief cuts at all. Is there an embossed number on it?

    The forged bullet guides with the relief cuts were used in WWII. Approx. serial number range was 1.4 mil to 2.85 mil. Late war and post war bullet guides were stamped, not forged
