Acceptance mark on barrel?

Thanks for the info, guys. I hadn't noticed that my '38 S-42 had this mark, but on further investigation with a magnifier I found it. My 41 code 42 doesn't seem to have this acceptance mark on the left side of the barrel, although it does have the E/S proof. It has the regular E655 acceptance marks on the receiver and is all matching numbers. Maybe someone with a 41 code 42 could fill me in. Perhaps this particular variation didn't get this acceptance mark, for whatever reason.
Again I thank you for your time, barr
