    Mystery marking on Martin Muscat buttstock.

    While giving the Muscat a final going over, I found this marking on the butstock wrist. If theres an off the wall marking, Im going to find it. No clue as to what it is, just thought Id put it out there and see if it looked familiar to anyone

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    I must confess, I have looked at this photo for quite some times, but cannot see any trace of a deliberate marking. There is just no edge sharpness visible at all. I think those are just random pressure indentations from being banged around/stored or whatever.

    It looks a bit like the citadel stamp, well scrubbed and overmarked.
