The bottom is a sling swivel repair. Not bad either. The pistol grip is a John Q Public repair of a hole with microbed or some sort of equal filler. Sort of stands out like a sore d*ck, don't it?

The second picture is actually of the top of the buttstock. So perhaps they are both, Bubba's?
the stock itself is virtually pristine, with fairly crips stamps. Tight fit and extremely tight lockup. This stock has not seen much use. Nice stock.

Attachment 21130Attachment 21132Military stock repairs are usually indicated by additional markings. this WW2 WRA WB stock has been repaired, note the tall W stamp (also found on the M1903) and the post war P in the box
Sorry I hit some wrong buttons.

What say you folks, should I be calling shenanigans?
It is definetely walnut.
It has quite a few dents and dings for a humped stock and it was not a premium (price) by any means.

If that's the top, it's still not a bad repair. Could be weapon tech. Does it have the W as stated? The other is Barney doing microbed or something. If it's tight then use it. It can never be original again!

No, 'W' anywhere.
The stock came from Rob at Packrats, if it's been humped, it fooled him as well.
