Recently I've noticed several Mausers and Steyr M95 rifles that have what looks like a hand written serial number etched into the metal instead of a formed stamped number. Most of these appear on the bolt. Many times it's obvious that these cover up another serial number and the handwritten one is made to match the stamped ones so the rifle is all matching.
Were these done when the gun was refurbished at the arsenal, or is it just an importer or exporter trying to make non matching guns into matching ones?
