I see a "crown over whatever" military acceptance stamp below the MADE of the IN USA. I know these from the butt of Canadian .455's, so in the absence of the obvious SA stampings, this might be one of the BPC-shipped guns, and it went to Canada, which would be a plausible hypothesis. (Unless that's just a random blemish and I just failed a Rohrschach test )
