Several years ago I bought a couple of scant grip 1903 stocks that were purported to be 1903A4 stocks - one is used and shows wear in the cutoff area and has been drilled for the front barrel band and shows handling wear. The other one apparently wasn't ever put on a rifle - it wasn't drilled for the front barrel band and shows only handling dings and what not. Both have the K stamp in the cutoff area, and both show the milled out area in the bolt cut-out.

My question is - are these stocks real?
