    Who can identify the rifle this military paratrooper folding stock belongs to?

    I picked up this military paratrooper folding rifle stock with a pistol grip and a swivel sling from an estate sale. I thought it might fit an M1icon Carbine but I was wrong. Now, I can not figure our which rifle this stock belongs to. Can anyone help me identify it?

    Attached are the pics I have taken--hope they are good enough.

    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.

    Ruger Mini 14. It's the factory folder. They cost enough if you try to buy one...

    Wow. I'm jealous of that thing. My Mini 14 would look good in that.

    Maybe a PM would be in order. Sounds like he doesn't have use for it anyway...
