That wasn’t done at Jianshe, that’s some stateside “artwork”  ::)

The fact there is no S/N on the stock immediately leads me to believe P32.  It's a nice enough bit of 'trench art' though, I've seen far worse done to stocks!  thumb1

Got the word from owner that red star was added by previous owner - aftermarket glitz. Too bad.
