Gents,
I had a couple of hours to spare today so decided to start renovating the stock of my recently acquired Mk 2 Service rifle. The stock was covered in a yukky brown coloured varnish , beneath which I was sure lurked a nice piece of walnut.
Well after scraping off the varnish I was confronted by a logo filled in with filler. After removing the filler I discovered a distinctly oriental looking pictogram/ font carved into the stock. This is deliberate carving and not a scratch.
I wonder if any of you chaps can throw any light on this for me. I have googled' 'oriental script', but there are thousands of possibilities and many languages involved. Over to you budding Sherlocks....
