    The punch mark. Remington was required to select rifles for "accuracy and smoothness of operation". Remington management decided they would address the accuracy requirement by air gauging the barrels and maintaining control of the uniformity of the final ream dimension.
    I suspect the punch mark was how they identified approved A4 barrels in the plant.
