Unusual Low Wood Underwood Stock...

Hello All:

I thought you might enjoy looking at this one and commenting for us:

Here's a stock you don't see everyday on GB:

M1 CARBINE ORIGINAL MILITARY STOCK WB MARKED : Rifle Stocks at GunBroker.com

Can anyone (esp you experts to which I certainly bow) shed some light on this?
What's the history? What is this correct for? Look at the cartouche on the pistol grip bottom, the WB markings.

Thanks!

You need that handguard for an IBM.

Does look like the W.B. Stamp and the small CC Stamp from......

Numrich Gun Parts Corp. - The World's Largest Supplier of Firearms Parts and Accessories

LW-B Hand Guards? I know a 'Guy' who has some extra........... :thup:

Seller seems honest enough, may just not know.

Yep. The LW-B I thought I saw in my handguard seems to dis-appear a bit more everytime I look at it. That and a HI handguard keep me looking at gun shows.

It seems I've seen a sampling of a few hundred extra on here as of late. Would be tons of fun to look through.

Are you joking? I've been looking for a 4 rivet HI handguard for a while - "is there something about these I don't know?" :eek:

Seems like it. I've been looking through piles of handguards at gun shows for one with a HI on it for about a year and a half now. My horoscope says there will be one in Kansas City this upcoming weekend.
