M1 Grand stock markings

Would any one know something about this stock. There is no maker stamp on it just a few #/s. on the right side . Top to bottom AA , 42410 , 44 There is a P on the pistol grip & looks like # 's 383 in the barrel channel . The Garand is a Springfield 7/54. This is the one I just finish bulding with the help of Browningautorifle & a few other guys. BIG THANKS. It only needed a barrel & bolt pics of it on another post.

The AA is the Augusta Arsenal re-build mark and the numbers could be the SN or rack number depending how many digits...the P in circle is the proof mark. It's simply a used stock that has gone through the mill.

What stock markings would be correct for the receiver.

I think by then they were using SA/JLG? Depends on the number...maybe just the DAS marking. I'm not sure about that...

Interesting thread as I have a Winchester Garand with the Augusta Arsenal AA stamp with numbers below it on my stock also. Was just typing a new topic I am about to post about it with the same question. I would love to know what the numbers mean if anyone knows!

We've hashed this before and I don't remember anyone coming up with a definite answer...

You say the rifle is a SA, July 1954, so the SA stock with DAS would be correct.

Great thanks. DAS Will start looking foe one.

Were do they put the stampings on the Garand stock. Like DAS .

Left side just below the rear sight. That's on the lower stock group of course...

This is the location of the cartouche when the stock was proof fired and had the P stamp by the pistol grip. It can also be the location of a rebuild stamp (or two).

The photo shows a WW2 Winchester stock that was rebuilt during WW2 and had the SA GAW stamp applied as a rebuild stamp, also a second P proof stamp too. I have also seen 1903 and 1903A3 stocks with the rebuild SA GAW stamp

Great thanks all.
