Were they engraved and rounded or flat head? Thanks much.

PS. A picture to see would be great.

It seems to be a toss-up whether C butt plate screws are engraved or not. They would be flat with the earlier style butt plate Jeff showed and curved with the later butt plate with rings around the screw holes.

Whoops!

SN 10653 above is not a CE12. It doesn't have ejectors so just a plain C12.
