SVW45 stock stamp question

Real or fake?

Thats on an SVW45 and its real.

It's been heavily shellacked though.

I think I was fat fingering the phone when I put SWP....

Wow, I would have lost out on that deal had it been my way...

Ehh, that stamp looks fake to me... it looks like it was just done recently and that outline is pretty prominent. I've never seen one that deep before, even though this is hardwood. Does anyone have similar orignal examples like this?

When I see a deep stamp like that, I say let’s see the rest of the rifle. I’ve seen the rest, the stamp is good. You can’t make a call from 1 photo, you have to take it in context.

Thank you for responding. Since I don't recall ever seeing pictures posted of legitimate rifles with derp stamps, I erred on the side of caution

I defer to your guys’ expertise! I’ve learned yet another good tidbit of info. I never realized these stamps were so deep on these later rifles.

It’s the walnut, that generally allows the deeper imprint, as the wood is softer.

I always knew that, I own a walnut byf 43 with a clear deep stamp, but I’ve never seen one as deep as the OPs rifle with the die outline.

I'm no fan of it either. Don't like it .
