Large AAG arsenal mark on scant stock?

[John Beard]

Hey guys,

Does a large AAG on the left wrist of a Springfield scant stock indicate inspection by Augusta Arsenal Georgia? Looked in Brophy's and all arsenal markings that start with AA are Augusta Arsenal, AAG is not listed. Does the G stand for Georgia?

The proof P on the bottom of the wrist is serifed with rectangular border. Thought I read somewhere that was used at the San Antonio Arsenal?

Stock is a beauty and was never reworked.

(1) No. "G" is the last initial of the inspector.

(2) You read correctly. But I don't recall anyone stating that San Antonio Arsenal retained exclusive use of the boxed "P".

Hope this helps.
