Very Good job on that bolt. What are the markings on the right side of that receiver

Photo of receiver markings for Mr Steelbuttplate. Not sure what they all mean myself yet.

You are from Europe? Looks like European inspection stampings required in order to sell them. 7.62 is the caliber. I don't know what the other ones mean. Someone here will know though or at least be able to tell you what country this was done in. Something tells me Germany but I really don't know. Here, we get ugly importer stampings required by our government. But on the Polish M-44's these markings are indiscreet and on the muzzle end of the barrel..

UK proof marks, it was nitro-proofed at the London Proof House in 1990 ("LP" over "90").

Its a local chap who lives near me. Hes been restoring firearms since he was 16 and his work is superb. He has done a few bits for me one of which was taking a ZF41 scope to pieces to clean the very cloudy len' and re-assemble. Its not only firearms but anything firearm related i.e. restoration of old presentation cases etc etc. I will speak to him and message you with his info. Hes not cheap but he did the bolt for me on mates rates.

George
