Hello all,

Just going to try to keep this one short and sweet.

I just recently picked up a very nice 5/42 correct rifle originally from the collection of Bruce Canfield and have since been inspecting it.

One thing that stands out to me is an “X” marking on the left side of the lower band. A photograph of the marking can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/nq16tZt

Does anyone know what this means? Is it the letter X or is it a cross?

Thank you!
- Michael
