    Anyone seen this stock marking?

    It's currently on a GB Carbine with M2 stock.

    Stock markings above are distorted. A better picture reveals it's SSABo.

    With the help from our Friendly fellow member from Pordenone, Italyicon we now know this SSABo stands for:

    Sezione Staccata di Artiglieria Bologna - Detached Artillery Section in Bologna


    Some there from The Ex Ordinanza Site had reported these markings on their Carcanos coming from the Terni Arsenal.

    Success !!

    It makes sense too, the only thing I came up with was the FAT stocks. Same star and type of stamp.
