Please re-confirm the receiver stamps. Please do not call them dove-anything They are EAGLE/WaA4 inspection and acceptance. The proof stamps should be a different eagle ArA4--this stamp is on the barrel as well, although it is usually very poorly stamped. The same eagle should be found on the left side of the breechblock, again poorly stamped. The designations under the eagles are important data.

Please note, if all three stamps on the receiver are actually e/WaA4 this is a data point which should be addressed specifically, as it is not expected and may be important.

Also, there are some of these pistols found with a very different style of eagle stamp with no letters underneath. This should be addressed specifically as well.
