I would agree with your guess about "DC being a previous owners initials". I haven't seen any marked in that location with stamped letters from the factory before. You may be able to get some more info from the cody firearms museum if you give them a call. You can also order a factory letter for your gun if you are interested. http://centerofthewest.org/explore/fire ... s-records/
