I have a very nice 1898, ser. # 1368XX. Looking for any info on the unit numbers on the stock. There is a large 9 stacked over a 1, and underneath that is a smaller 47. Was there any consistency as to how these markings were used/applied? Finally, given the serial number, might this rifle have seen any combat? Thanks for any information.
