  Anyone know what the proof marks "FG" and "SW" stand for on WWII era 1911 barrels? I have two Remington Rand slides with barrels marked with above.

  Definitely not proof marks, which are usually "P" on 1911 barrels. Could be inspector or heat lot marks.
  
  It's more important to identify the barrel manufacturer. R-R used barrels made by Colt (usually COLT .45 AUTO), Springfield Armory (S), & High Standard (HS). Please indicate all other markings, especially those on the barrel link stud. And, are they blue or bright finish?
