Added a Underwood to my collection Ser # 1,358,XXX. That puts me halfway between arming a Color Guard and a Fire Team. This 1942 beauty joins my 1944 Winchester and Inland. If anyone would care to give me an estimate of it's current value I would appreciate it.



With some parts swapping I brought it up to Underwood correct except for the Barrel Band. I have the Leaf Site set aside for now until I zero in the horizontal position with the type 2 on the weapon.

Some of the Underwood components are not the proper 1942 circa, most notably the hammer and the stock. I'll have to keep my eyes open for them along with a type 1A barrel Band.. Probably going to take a while.

The current type 2 stock (High to Low) will have to do for now and will serve as my shooter. I redid the finish and had my quality control check it out.



It has a fair acceptance stamp.



The wood has a very nice grain.



My quality control official is 20 (97 People Years) and blind so she gives me a lot of slack on my refinish jobs.



This was my 10th stock redo and I have 6 more in the pipeline. It's a labor of love.
