Built for WWI when Springfield and Rock Island couldn't keep up with production, is what my research has led me to learn. Can anyone tell me the meaning of the flaming bomb and star in the circle? Couldn't seem to find info on that part. In any case, she fires rounds good and will be used as an elk and moose rifle, once I get some glass on her and sighted in.

EDIT: Post #8 on the referenced thread may explain the star stamp. Last edited by LAtrapper; 04/30/21 11:01 PM.
