Question additional input on holster mark

Gentlemen;

With respect to the comment that the holster mark may be a personal identification mark, I can only add that the mark was obviously impressed by a stamping device and not carved in or impressed by free hand. The edges are too clearly defined and flat edged. How likely is it that a soldier would have a tool to do this? Could it have been done by a field distribution depot of not done by the maker?

If you look closely you can see that the strap closure for the takedown tool is longer than normal in order to contain the cleaning rod. You can also see that if it was not original and a replacement for a shorter strap, that they must have stitched it into the identical holes since the stitching is very tight and there is no additional puncture holes. This leads me to suspect that the holster was made this way unless someone took considerable time to hand stitch into the orignal holes. I will say that I am far from an expert on this matter so I defer to anyone who is. Comments please!
