Made during the Korean War, reputedly near a base in Japan where soldiers R&R'ed. I've also seen numerous T-53 Mosins done in the same style. This one's in 6.5x57 (6.5-.257 Roberts).
It's generally whatever is the most integral supporting component necessary for function. In the AR, it ties all the parts together in the proper spacing to function.
Fakes, made in the early 2000s. The only real German use marking that would ever be put on a M95 carbine would be a stamp on the underside of the stock. The action-and-stock stamped rifles are fakes made to up-value carbines that were at the time selling for about sixty bucks.

An Enfield .22 trainer multiple-round subcaliber magazine can push $1500 by itself. A MAS-45 can be sometimes found for $200. Go to rimfirecentral and do your homework.
German rifles produced at DWM have a variety of markings. Sun, crescent moon, Saturn, five and six-pointed stars, various other stampings. They are generally recognized to be QC inspection approval stamps during production.
