    Smith-Corona Correct Stock??

    I picked up a Smith- Corona serial number 4,762,xxx. It appears to have all correct Smith-Corona parts. However, I'm not sure of the stock. Stock has no rework stamp. RA, crossed cannons and initials FJA in the side. Proof mark P. It has a Remington butt plate and Remington type inspection marks in front of the trigger guard in the wood.

    My question: Is it possible that this stock is original to the rifle???

    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.

    Nope, a replacement.

    Except for the stock all metal(bands, bolt etc.) are 100% Smith- Corona. Parts are blued where they are supposed to be blued etc. , mint bore with 99% metal. The original owner bought it in the late 1950's or early 1960's from the DCM. However, no paper work or box. The Remington stock is in mint condition.

    Any idea on the general value?
