    S.E. Overtons first shipment of stocks..

    Happen to read today in a history article of South Haven Michigan, that Overton shipped out their first shipment of carbine stocks on May 27 1942.
    Article said by Wars end they had shipped out 2,661,054 stocks.
    Couldn't find any info on hand guards.......maybe the same amount?
    That's a lot of Walnut.
    Can't help but wonder how many stocks in total might have been made by all the suppliers.

    Just FYI
