    Garand stock, who made it?

    I have a really nice Garandicon stock , came off a CMPicon gun a few years ago. Its a bit differnt in a couple ways to my 44' and my friends 43' SA Garands. I know you guys would nail it. The whole stock set matches up and really looks nice but I wanted to see if it was a SA stock or a IHC , etc.

    Thanks-

    Yeah I thought its post war, the rifle is a re-work 43' how do you tell if its a HRA or anyone else? I have a book but it looked like a IHC. I will post pictures of the whole rifle in a little bit before I put it back away. , Jay

    It looks just like the stock I posted last week and it was ID'ed as HRA. HRA by the grip, porch and comb.

    Would it be easy for me to try and find a SA stock and maybe trade some one or would one be worth more than the other?

    Looks just like my HRA that I just got. The HRAs have more wood around the receiver than the SA.

    Thanks troops. Now I know I have a amazing HRA Garandicon stock. Im working on trying to restore this rifle to factory new. Im only out a curved side Op rod and a 43' SA stock.

    What would be a good asking price for the whole stock set so I can get the correct one?
