Has anyone else see this before? The gun has not been redone. The barrel is missing the WINC from Winchester and below that the MADE IN is missing also.

Is this common? 

Thank You,

Can you provide a clear picture of it?

Frankly, I very strongly suspect that the barrel has been buffed, polished, and refinished.

Anything is possible, but based on my observations, the USRACo deeply stamped the barrel roll markings.  The attached picture is typical of their roll marking techniques.
