Does anyone recognize these stamped markings on a M 1876 carbine S/N 14622 , cal. 45/60 ?   SMG on barrel and stock. Winchester T.E. Hall letter confirms: carbine, caliber,  and ship date.  “RML” carved into stock. Thanks for any help.  Doug Saleen # 66338.  Will attempt pictures.20240403_181346-Copy.jpg20240403_181433-Copy.jpg20240403_181446.jpg20240403_181550-Copy.jpg

Welcome, Doug!

Most likely explanation is these were the initials of previous owners. Can’t make out anything in the picture of the barrel below the front sight.
