    Yes, the import mark was under the stock on the receiver. The gray was sanded off to bare metal where the import mark was applied. The gray is not applied over the mark so I assume it was done upon import of the rifle.

    Looks as if the entire rifle was disassembled and coated, except for the scope pads since they are staked. I don't see any sanding or scuff marks under the gray and the gray was evenly applied. There is no sign of the black coating on the barrel or receiver.
