If nothing else, it is a very interesting bit of carbine history. I just wonder why they weren't stamped RRAD anywhere if that is where they were modified.

Pretty sure that when a rebuild facility stamped a stock it was to indicate that they had inspected or rebuilt a complete weapon. Don't think that would apply if they just modified a bunch of excess stocks. Then again who's to say that they even did the mods. All we know for sure is they packed them in that box.Quote:

You are forgiven! - we're all just a bunch of guys with similar interests in items like these, and trying to figure out in our own minds different ways it all may have taken place. - BobQuote:
