GSM Marking

[painter777]

Came across a Carbine with both the Recoilplate and stock having the marking GSM added to them.

I don't know if it has anything to do with the GSM but the bolt has what looks to be a 14 digit number marked on it.

I tried a Google search and found a link to a CMP event called a GSM, where it stood for Garand-Springfield-Military Rifle Clinic. Which includes the M1 carbine.
BTW, The location in this link is 30 minutes from my home
The link: http://www.odcmp.org/0806/GSM_MI.asp



Do any believe this carbine may have belonged to a GSM club?
Or any other thoughts?

Thx
