Some collectors have stated that Winchester even use wood from their custom shop when they
started production of the M1 rifle early in 1941

Photos show two early stocks manufactured for the solid butt plate with fancy walnut stocks
from Winchester. 4319343194

Yes Tom, original stocks believed to be from post WW2 Rock Island stored in a barn in Wisconsin. The GCA Journal had a feature
article on this not long ago by Rick Borecky
