    So the cartouche on the bottom of the pistol grip. SA acceptance? Made by another Manufacture and then accepted by SA? Or made in SA and Accepted to go to production?
    Good question. I didn't know SA used any contract stocks during WW2. Looking forward to an answer from someone.

    The ordnance wheel on the bottom of the pistol grip signifies a stock accepted by SA made by someone other than SA.
