I was asked about this by another member considering purchase of that gun. It was odd that it was not pictured or mentioned in the sale listing. But it was disclosed by the seller.

That marking is not factory.
It was put on there by some party after the fact in a way to try and avoid someone from overcharging it with the improper shells.

I assume this is on your restored VHE?

Did your gun have Remington repair markings on the barrel flats?
