Fake inspection stamp?

[CanadaCollector]

Sorry for the huge delay...I dont come on here as often as I should. To answer your questions:

The bolt heat lot reads: -2SA RE4D

I just took appart my Garand to check and it does have the long channel with the dimple in the ferrule.

As for the 8 on the centre of the follower, I didnt see one on the top but there is one on the bottom of it...I take it this is what you meant?

Any reason for the specific questions? Just curious.

I have taken photos of all the above mentioned but am horrible at posting them on here. If you PM me your email I will send them to you.

CanadaCollector, I can't quite make out your bolt heat lot. Is it -2SA RE4D?

Also, more importantly, is your stock long channel with the dimple in the stock ferrule? The dimple is a small punch that does not pierce the metal of the ferrule.

Could you post a pic showing the throat and the ferrule? Also, a pic of the receiver heat lot? Thanks.

Is the follower marked with an 8 in the center?
