I have attached a picture of the U.S. and flaming bomb markings on a blued WWII M12 trench gun. I am wondering if these are legitimate markings? My question has to do specifically with the 'shape' of the grooves, they appear to be "V" shaped. If you look at page 129 of Canfield's book (updated), the markings are more "U" shaped, actually I would even say "|_|" shaped. The markings on my factory parked example follow the look of Canfield's, as do a few others that I have observed. I will try to get mine out of the safe tonight and post a nice close-up of it's markings for comparison. Any opinions? Just curious...
