Hi everyone- I have a '93 LM II with Union of South Africa markings. There aren't any markings on the butt plate upper tang- it looks like they were ground off. However along the butt itself are some good-sized times new roman-font stamps that look like "4NVB" and then the numerals 182 in slightly smaller size. I've googled to no avail- anyone have any idea what it could mean? Thanks
