The practice certainly existed in WW2. There are dozens of photos of both Flak cannon and tank cannon with "Kill" rings around the barrels. How much that extended to individual weapons is anyone's guess. I've seen K98s and Garands, with distinct notches in the stocks. It is unusual for someone to have done it into the metal when there are perfectly carve-able wood grips present.
