Holes Under Butt Plates, Help Needed
I have examples of these stock makers with the number of holes under the Butt plate:
1 Hole:
S-HB, OI, HI, RSG (SG), RSG (S'G'), IR, RSG TO I (TRANSFER), RMC, RMC TO I (TRANSFER), RMC B, QRMC, TRIMBLE FOR NPM AND SG.
SJ, LW, LW-U, LW-B, P-U, JL-B, JL, IR-IP, Circled K often thought made by Keystone, HQ.
3 Holes:
WRA, SC-B, S&C-U, M-U, BR-B, J, SA, M with Bomb in slingwell. P-J
Would also appreciate any information on Butt plate holes from any replacement stock that has a marking in the sling well... Like just P, .. etc.
So we'll know the maker.

ETA: I'll dig out my log I believe I may have a Underwood in a P-U Stock. But if I do it's........... Waaaaay in the back of the Bunker vault.

Charlie, I just happen to have a loose P-U oval cut low wood on my workbench, just one hole for the butt plate screw.

Not sure that we really know the origin of this stocks as far as wartime or post war replacement but the stocks believed to be manufactured by Keystone with the circled K in the sling well have one hole under the butt plate.

Thx Wayne,
Have been meaning to ask about the Circled K, but hadn't got around to it. I'm way behind in returning PM's and Emails. Been trying to clean up a mess my local tree feller left me.
And getting ready to head to DC this week for my Grandson's 6th Birthday.
Also looking for how many holes under M and Bomb, HQ, and IIRC P-1 or PJ?
I had M and bomb stocks but gave them away.
Thx Again

That's what I had in a note book, but wanted to be sure. SA=3 holes.
I couldn't edit my list on TCCCF so I posted as a reply with added info in the 'Who Made This Stock? post.
Something done, besides the knee deep pile of chains I'm sharpening..... to hot to do much outside.
Got a 16' Maple trunk down roughly 46" across and 53" high, ran in to a seam of gravel in the center from 4' to about 11'.
Stump is clear grain, no voids. Can only figure at one time it must have had a split where the branches spread from the trunk and some how got gravel in it.

Thx Again Wayne,

I hate sharpening chains even with an electric bench sharpener, I just spend the money and keep new ones on hand! Nothing cuts like a brand new chain.
