Trying to find information on a stock marking underside of rear grip.  Marking is: B 61  Other info on the rifle and stock if it helps - Buffalo Arms 10-1943 date on the Barrel / United Postal Meter 4327645 U / NPM FJA
Thanks.

If it's anything other than a p, double-p, circled-p or anything resembling a p....it's likely a rack number. I have one with 96 and if you flip it around...it's 69. One can find most anything stamped or stenciled in the area of the pistol-grip.

A rack number makes sense.  The B is on top with the 61 below it. Letter and numbers are about 1/2 inch in size.  Thanks for the reply.
