    What is the correct stock and plate for a Rock-Ola 4.6?

    Hello, I am a bit new to the word of Carbines and would appreciate some help.

    I have a Rock-Ola M1icon Carbine with a Serial number range in 4607XXX. From the best that I can gather, it looks like the manufacture date was on or around February 1944. Everything seems to be correct - but I am questioning the stock and plate.

    What is the correct stock and plate for this? A high or a low? Or, a 3 O'Clock or a 5 OClock. Any guidance would be appreciated.

    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.

    For a Rock-Ola that late, either an I-cut or an oval cut could be correct as Rock-Ola never finally did away with the I cut and it frequently appears on some of their very late production carbines. As far as I know the 3 o'clock was no longer in use that late.
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    I have a 458 Rockola. It has a Highwood stock and a 3oclock plate, type I barrel band. Would love to see some pictures.
