I think so, but I also heard that Eddystone didnt mark their handguards. However, each mfr created little features that are clear identifiers for collectors. I think a google search can further augment the insights already provided you in this string along these lines.

Eddystone most certainly did mark their handguards. The example I had, which was about as close to new condition you could get, had the "E" stamped on the tops of the handguards.

Probably, because of that they are/were easily worn/dinged up/sanded away/replaced, or otherwise made to be not viewable.

Yes they did. Mine was also so marked.
