Short Video lesson on Garand wood

[Rick B]

There are a few things that bother me after all the years of handling and doing Data for the M1 Garand wood. First the IHC Indent as it is called. No such thing as Earlier Garand manufactures had it. It isn't that there was no Indent but that it cannot be called The IHC Indent. Next is that All Winchesters had a V-notch and Arched underside. I hope this video helps a bit as it shows some features very few people get to actually see. The stock in the video is rare than a Gas Trap era stock. . Rick B

Nice WRA / RS stock

So somebody forever wrecked a rare stock with a fake cartouche??

[Rick B]

Yep and nope. I should be able to steam out the fake SPG. Look at the G where the top legs on the right comes down towards the lower flat ledge. It is way out and not lined up. It is allot different compared to the SPG rebuild stamp and they tried to copy the late GHS "G" Also notice how low the bar is in the "A". Rick B
