I am sure this question has been asked thousands of times, here and elsewhere, but here goes: I have a Winchester, made in February, 1944. The barrel, obviously a replacement, is a Springfield marked 2-S-A-11-43. The parts are mixed, mostly SA. I even contributed to the mixture, replacing the stamped trigger guard with a milled one because I like the look of the milled one. The stock cartouches have been sanded off except the circle P. Now the question:

Is there any way to determine the history of the rifle, ie., what unit it was issued to, etc.? There was a lot of war to be fought after Feb., 1944, not to mention Korea.
