    Sold for $1500 in 2006 at auction. It will probably earn a little more.

              Mark I stock. I think that's a parts rifle. As in, someone found an SRS hit and put a shiny rifle together. Certainly didn't look like that in '41, or 1955, for that matter.

                stock has a bit of wood missing, guessing sanded hard, around the floor plate
