What stock do I need?

[mdrim13]

I have a 6-42 SA Garand that I believe is all correct, except for the wood. I was wondering what the correct stock would be? I posted a thread on the gun a while back and someone mentioned the dreaded SA/GHS stock. Is this correct? (Hoping not!) What other marks would be on the stock? Im assuming there would be an ordnance wheel. If so what size would it be? Maybe some measurements?. Any other markings? I would love a picture or two of a stock that would fit said rifle if someone would be so kind. The reason I am asking is that I'm going to begining the long process of trying to find one. I just dont want to shell out the BIG bucks for a fake. What about the handguards? Are they of any certain type or are they marked? Anything else I should know before starting my search? I'll post a link to the old thread with pics of the gun just in case anyone wants to see it.

SA/GHS would be the correct cartouched stock for your rifle's serial number.

SA GHS with the short barrel channel - you did not state your rifles serial number ?

You will need the type one lock bar too

Let me know if you know who has one...until then the type two will have to work.

SA GHS with the short barrel channel - you did not state your rifles serial number ?

The serial is 676292, as pictured in the link I posted. Could you please explain the short channel stock?As compared to the long? I have no knowledge in this area.

What am I missing here?


Also is there an ordnance wheel on the stock? If so what size? What about the "P in Circle" on the grip? Thanks.
