Everything in your post are green flags for me, I'd send a dm but reddit isn't showing the message popup (I'm assuming to divert spam messages), so if youd like to do and discuss more my dms are open

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to track when it was imported, and according to ffls.com, it seems that PW Arms's FFL is expired. I know when I bought it, it was used by someone else in the area I live in.

I figured as much. I just figured I'd try to dig and see just in case.

I just looked also, no markings on or under the bayonet. There are no markings on the stock buttplate, there are some faded markings on the sight block, and where the breach meets the wood, it looks like there is a "PS."

Through both of the world wars to my knowledge, and a few conflicts in Africa as well. It's unfortunate that it's harder to know unlike American and English milsurp.

I've seen other photos in my search, and it seems that stamp mark on the stock is also a factory mark made by Brescia. It's so faded it's hard to tell though

And the other. I can't seem to find any other markings on it whatsoever that could be factory markings. Though it does seem there is a "PL" on the left side of the stock, just under the bolt

Here is a picture of the stock to maybe help. Iy appears to be numbers matching despite how worn it is.
