When was my FN Deluxe made?
In 2013 Patrick Chadwick helped me decipher some proof marks on a commercial FN Mauser. I'm hoping either he or some other Forum member can help me out again.
I recently purchased an FN Deluxe, serial number 1049X. I looked over his earlier advice on how to determine the manufacture year and I've run into a problem: Instead of a Greek letter in the cartouche there is a 5 pointed star. I know these guns were made between 1949 and 1963, and I assume a serial number just over 10000 would be fairly early in the production run, but I'd like to nail down the production year for sure. Here is a picture of the marks on the left side of the barrel and receiver. The serial number is on the other (right) side.

Remove it from the stock and look for more markings on the bottom of the action. In this case the proofmarkings you posted will not help.
