Carbine stock marking - help needed !

[Patrick Chadwick]

Thank you Jim for the quick reply.

I had found that site, and knew about IO /OI. I suppose that the stock was supplied to Standard Products by Overton, and therefore marked Std Prod before the rifle was assembled. So it would have been an genuine part for a Std Prod carbine. But who/what was RWH? Standard Products acceptance/inspector???

Oops, thanks Charlie, you posted while I was typing. All clear now. If you (or anyone else) finds out the name behind RWH, please post it here!

Patrick,
Since you asked about this it's been like a pebble in my boot !
Have no new information about who Standard Products Rebuild Inspector was....
Looks like I'm not alone after looking over this list:
"RWH Unknown Rebuilt Standard Products .30 M1 Carbines"
