Will a 1903 stock fit a 1903A3 ?
I have a 1903A3.
CMP has new production 1903 stocks available, but no 1903A3 stocks.
The ones I'm looking at are the pistol-grip stocks.

Yes, the CMP stocks will fit the A3. That is what you see here.

Then the new CMP 1903 stocks must come also already inletted for the handguard ring of the 03A3, right? Some Original GI WWII "Scant Stocks" made early only fit the 03, as they were machined for the 1903 rear sight base, and NOT for the 03A3 handguard ring, until the 03A3 reached production status, then all replacement stocks were cut for both rifles. Just to clarify. CC
CMP has stocks for both 1903 and 03-A3. I have one of each. The only difference is which hand guard is furnished, and the style of the CMP cartouche. It's Item #87 in their catalog.Quote:

Thanks for the replies.
I contacted CMP (duh, why didn't I think of that first) and they say they will have more A3 stocks soon.
