Nope , usually the screws are stainless and won't show it ! Well provided the gun has a recoil pad as do the two I bought .

However the screw inside the stock into the tang is a good one for that .

My retired pharmacist friend however has a solution that when put on a small spot of wood without finish it will turn milky in about 10-20 seconds if there's salt present in the wood .

Both this 28 and the 410 I have coming today (Monday the31st) are serial numbered for 1970 . As is my 12 gauge Mag Superposed well 1969 actually . Anyway any time I get or am thinking of getting a Browning be it shotgun rifle or handgun I get this guy to check them out . He was into Brownings in a big way so I trust his judgement .
