Hi, What would be the correct stock for a 1903 Springfield. It has a 1933 date receiver and was rebuild with a barrel dated 1943 USMC. It has a ''C'' stock. Would it be correct?
regards,
Rich

Have to remember in 1943 we were in a rough fight in Guadalcanal, and that North Africa invaded and rifles were being put together and reconditioned to be issued as fast as two hands could do it.
Heck they are all correct considering the war. going on

With a USMC 1943 dated barrel, a "C" stock can be considered correct for your rifle.
