Okay, my eyes must not be as bad as I thought then! Anyway, I have a 5.74 Winchester too. Our guns may have had their serial numbers stamped on the same day in fact. Clearly there would be no UEF ordnance bomb on heal if it's a Winchester receiver, so that can be put away I'm pretty sure. Can you do a closeup of the left side of the barrel band? I am just making sure it's the correct one or trying to at least. Winchester was having some manufacturing issue during the time our carbines were produced. It's nice to see some of them still around.

From a reference, the last Winchester number applied to a receiver for the day.
