    early pre WW2 fancy walnut M1 rifle stocks

    Many collectors claim that Winchester used-up most of their fancy grade wood (from the custom shop)Attachment 85443Attachment 85444Attachment 85445 on the early M1icon rifle production. Springfield pre war stocks are mostly close grained with little figure.

    During the war I am sure any fancy grain walnut found in Springfield production might have been set aside for presentation rifles.

    Post WW2 will show more nice figured wood but not like the pre war Winchester examples in my photos - note the stocks are for the solid butt plate
