    The type of wood used on both the P14 and M1917 was American Black Walnut. In comparing the M1917 and P14 stocks the front ends on the P14 appears to be a bit thinner. I don't know if the thinness is from the constant handling of the rifles as drill rifles or made that way. The front and rear bands for the P14 and M1917 rifles are identical.
