    Early Rockola I-cut highwood stock,vert RMC

    I have a very early I cut highwood Rockola stock with the vertical RMC in slingwell. it came with an early inland butt plate. No cartouche that I can see ( my eyes are bad) and it has AAY on left side but not too deep. The stock is very solid, beautiful grain. How rare are these vertical stamped stocks ? What serial number range were they used in ? And is it possible that in early Inland butt plate was used by Rock ? What would the value be on this ?
    Not sure how to post pics from the Tapatalk app.
    Thanks !

    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Is the rebuild marking plain or serifed font? Is the band usage type 1 or 2
