Stock cartouches

3 posts in this topic

Does anyone know what, if any, cartouches were applied to the stocks of the Johnsons used by the Marines?

Did they have the circled "P" on the front of the pistol grip area like other US rifles?

Did they have any inspectors initials on the side?

Was USMC stamped anyplace on the stock?

Was an eagle, globe, and anchor applied anywhere?

Hey,

I had a post on something similar, but it probably got copied as a backup and deleted from this forum.
On my JSAR, on the bottom of the pistol grip is a number of dots made with a punch - it looks like it reads "0" over "37" - no idea what it means and it's far too sloppy to be the mark of an armourer.
