Hi George,
Is the crown/M on a Navy stock a proof or an acceptance mark? My best bet? Acceptance mark. I don't think they 'proofed' the stocks like they proofed pistols.

That's my point, were stock irons treated as non weapons and therefore not subject to proofing?
Also, has anyone seen the "G" or the "S" cartouche on GEW98s or other rifles? Lots of cartouche on my long guns but no "S" or "G".
Does anyone know if this stamping was isolated to individuals in factories?
