Can't tell from the photo too well, but they appear to be very nice tiger striped stocks.
Congrats!

Yes - the bottom one is a nice 1936 with 1933 dated Walnut stock with the usual butt end wear.

I guess it would all depend on what you intend to do with the rifle. I shoot cast bullet matches upon occasion and since I have a cast bullet load that I know will hold 1", mine wears a an older Tasco 6x24x40 scope. It's bulky, but we shoot from the bench. The mount is an Accumount clamp on, definitely not parallel to the bore, I had to use Weaver windage adjustable rings. Without them I barely had enough windage adjustment to get on target at 100yd. The objective bell clears the rear sight by only about 1/8". Since it shoots the load so well, I usually shoot in the production class rather than the military class. I get to shoot smaller targets and also get to shoot more rounds.

If that Accumount is not parralel to the axis of the bore, then there's a definite problem.
Not Latigo

Scope mounted. Ended up with a 1-4x for the distances available at the local range.
Now to Zero. Hope the temp warms up to above freeing this week!

It appears they machined it to be parallel with the receiver, which has a taper they didn't take into account. Bob S was quick to point out that taper to me when I was wondering about using a US made receiver sight or a scope mount like the Williams. The tail end of my scope had to come to the left to get parallel with the bore. I bought the mount when Johnny first started selling on ebay, I don't know if they've made any changes since.
