Notch cut out on RMC stock ??

Only thing I can think of is that some other type of rifle with a left side short pull bolt was used in this stock.
Best guess I can come up with.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Charlie, that might be it. It looks like it was done very well. Now I'm a lefty, maybe it would fit me.....frank

Yep, probably the same person that has the explination for that one odd magazine has the explination for this!

You may have solved the mystery imarangemaster -

dnikkor's magazine could be for this left hand carbine bolt action!

I have an old winchester bolt action .22 that has a similar cutout. It is for a Lyman target peep. I wouldn't be surprised if that is what it was for.

I think JimB probably has it nailed.

Somewhere around here I have a nice old Lyman peep ( for a different rife ) that was going to require similar stock modifications. Since my woodworking skills were and are limited to a hammer and a chisel, I never installed it.

At least the stock in question was very nicely done.
