Slightly OT but semi-related - does anyone know what the four-interlocked-circle marking on the left side of the receiver means? My mid-1930s vintage 6.5 Arisaka has the same marking, and I have wondered about it ever since I've had the rifle.

Someone once told me it denoted the type of rifling in the bore, but I'm not sure I believe that. Seems like any such marking would be on the barrel rather than the receiver.
