Inspection Stamp Quiz

[Rick B]

I'm refining my guess...

In addition to #1 being fake,
GHS:
2, Fake
5 Fake
6 real
11 real

McF:
4 real
9 fake
10 real
8 real

Although my WIN-13 has no periods between the letters...

SN1

13/16"th boxed GHD should not have periods but the 1" inch boxed one does. WB and RS had periods also. Rick B

P.S. you have 4 wrong in your guess's

Thanks, Rick,

Hey, 4 wrongs is less than 50 percent... Looks like I need to go back to school...

I think my GHS's are all wrong... I'venever seen an original of those. But # 5 has to be fake... I think...

On to the next one. #2 is a fake. This is one Bodyman made mention of and actually both 1 and 2 were part of a huge internet war over fakes. They were stated to have come from a Air force base. I tried so hard to explain to the seller who was friends with the forger in California that the arsenal at Springfield stamped the stocks not some Air Force base in California. He was really bent on suing me and taking me off the boards over me showing him how wrong he was. He actually went on the boards asking everyone to get involved to take me down in a class action lawsuit which I was ready for.

Well enough on that and Jeff may have some more insight on that whole party fun we had. Allot of people today don't know how hard it was to help in this area back then and even one guy I was turning over was a very wealthy well known to the world person. I didn't care as wrong is wrong when fleecing people out of money.

Sorry for the small pic on this one but I will put a few larger comparisons up in a little bit but see if you can spot the issues on this one. Rick B
