The sub 61 guns range drastically in terms of positioning and clarity or the /26\ stamp.  Tilted, high, low, light ,deep... etc.

I also have an H  (H3333) still in cosmo...   one of my favorite IO batch guns.

Great score imho.   thumb1
      
1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms... It doesn't matter how many Lenins you get out on the street begging for them to be taken.

I have one with "BD" engraved in the stock, a little more toward the butt on the other end of the wrist.  I figured it was somebody's initials until another guy posted about the same initials on HIS .  Now I don't know what they signify.  :) 
I like guns

I wasn't sure if it was just scratches?  But that really looked like a p to me.
