Thanks to Len for the tip! That does indeed seem to be the answer.
The small six-pointed star is very well illustrated in "Mauser Military Rifles of the World" by Ball, in the section on Spain. PP 298-300 in the 3rd Edtion.
Is that what you have Victor?
(And if you don't have the book, may I heartily recommend that you get it!)
