    Another "what does this marking mean" question... (sorry guys)
    "When rifles were sold out of service from the Union of South Africa (1910-1961) the "correct" stamp would have been a U with a diamond in it...."

    So either the arrows pointing at at each other or the above? A single line? Can't think of a reference offhand.
