GPW marked top bow swival brackets?

Hey guys,
Sorry to ask this question, but I`ve searched this forum for an answer and cant seem to find anything? Like most everything, are they reproducing the GPW marked swival brackets? They are cast and was just wondering if they did mark the repro ones, how does one distinguish between original and copy??

regards,
Dion

Well our host Ron keeps them and they are marked with the GPW number. Otherwise MV spares . There are a few threads and photos on here - you can google ' G503 TOP BOW Swivels' and see something come up I am sure.

hope this helps Barrie
