P14/P17 lower and upper handguard.

One of the good indications of the P14 stock is the dial volley sight base on the left hand side of the gun. I am aware of subcontract replacement P14 stocks being made in the UK without the dial volley sight base. Unfortunately I am not aware of the particulars to tell them apart. I guess one way is looking at the length of the magazine box well in the stock. The P14 is shorter.

I have a P14 stock in the 1917 pattern on one of my P14 Winchesters. No gap in front of the forward action screw, but you can tell from the shape (squared off) of the front 2 corners of the floorplate, that its for a 1917. Looks good. Looks old. Is it totally incorrect?
