Trapshooter, the dot between the 2 and the zero in the full marking but bot between the same digits on the trigger guard is confusing. As the final number usually designates the weapon number, zero doesn't compute.

Without the dot, making the final number "20", it should read the 10th Infantry Regiment, 6th Company, 20th weapon.
