Hi FTD,
The one in the auction was posted about here before.
The Poster seems honest enough about the stock.
Said to have come from What A Country.
I've never dealt with WAC, but have heard their legit sellers.
Problem is..... That Stamp is a reproduction.
The stock is a WWII marked SC B in the slingwell.
I've tried and tried to copy it in to my Photo bucket files with no luck.
But I was able to find the old post on here about it.
In that post I put up a picture of a real stamped UEF/GHD and CC.
You can compare them in the old post, then look at the one on auction again.

what is the "difference" from the ebay stock here?

[FTD1167]

Question was more of line of the use of Birch by Underwood, is this a transfer of some sort. Went back to the older posts and got my answer...

[CrossedCannons]

Guess this

The question would be if your UEF over GHD stamp is real ?

Look real close at it and you can tell.

I must be blind because they look the same to me.

The only thing I see is the underside cannon breach doesn't line up with the barrel.
