    Freak M1a1 Wire

    Wonder what the story is regarding the tubular steel with no provision for a buttplate is? The metals look legit except for the no provision for buttplate part. Could this be one of the rebuild reject parts back in the day?

    Doesn't look that nice. There is a long crack in the wood.
