M1 carbine rock-ola stock

I know it not perfect and there is a scratch on the cartouche. And its nowhe

here is a better pic.

Measure the rectangle with RMC in it. Should be o.40 x 0.76". The letters should be 0.30" The cartouche should be 1/2". Also "appears' to have the "faint line" as mentioned in Riesch's book. This is the best info I can provide. Hopefully others will chime in.

Unfortunately, Rock-Ola stock parts seem to be the most often faked stock parts out there.....Frank

P.S. have you noticed all of the stamps for sale on E-Bay? One has to wonder how and who uses them.

From what I can see the cartouche is original, not fake.

Hey, that red is downright pretty.

Take a good look at the crossed cannons in relation to the RMC and the direction they are pointing in.

Bruce,
I seen that also........ But didn't want to throw out a guess because it's hard to tell with the picture of the stamp laying sideways.
I hope it's real for the buyers sake.

Cheers,
Charlie
