It turned out nicely, but it would have looked much better with the markings.

I've seen pics of regimental marked disks on SurplusRifle Forum, but have no idea what regiments they belong to, or if there was a standard for the marks [letters/numbers/slashes]...I have one steel & one brass...

For my fake carbines, I fill the disk hole in with a wood plug, since part of it gets milled out anyway for the sling relief...
