Looks like somebody didn't want somebody else to see what was there. Like tattooing over an ex girlfriend's name!

The letters "D" and "P" for example.

Looks like it could have been a Thai crest that got mangled.

Is that a 'U.S. Ordinance Bomb' marking on the bolt-head?

Yes it is!
I suspect that that Rifle has a Savage Bolt!

A late war ('44) Savage bolt by the s/n and an early war cocking piece.
Wonder if this rifle was a re-capture, perhaps from the Germans.....? Any other markings on the butt ?
Cheers.

No, no markings on the Butt or the Stock or underneath the Butt Plate, there is an R on the Flat of the Barrel and a 4 0 slightly to the side of that, I think that this is a Parts Gun put together at Federal Ordinance of S. El Monte Cal., who was the Importer.

Ex Indian STATE forces. AL is Alahambra(?) state as I recall from the Indian Army Liaison Officer at work a couple of years ago. That's why nothing matches!
