NRA carbines were made but not identified in any way, except by sale papers. Some of these papers have surfaced, even after these many years. No reason they could not have used cut-down rifle stocks but can it be proven? And even if it can it proves nothing about an individual rifle. Even with sale paper--the stock could have been broken and replaced with cut-down. So the best anyone can say about their cut-down is "it is done in the style of an NRA carbine". I have one (carbine stock) and thats what I say. I think you are on a useless quest.
