I'm replacing my Planet of the Apes carbine stock with a mannlicher. Will try a low profile Kydex handguard. Stock is from Macon (I think)  | ||

The last 3 or 4 stocks I did were all from stocks/wood I already had laying around for years. After this I MAY try a Yugo 24/47 from a blank. | |||

The truly grotesque part is that someone turned a valuable carbine into scrap iron. I know, back then they were not collected. | |||

I guess stock design is largely a matter of taste but I shudder at the scope mounts. One stumble could knock that scope way out and bend it to boot. Is that an 'African fore end' on the second stock? | |||

working with what I got, all the stocks were 20+ years old or original with the rifles. The M1 mannlicher was an ocd purchase. | |||

Not a fan of the thumb hole stocks. Until you last post, I was trying to figure out if that was a M1 carbine or not! Shoot Safe, Mike NRA Endowment Member | |||

It's an M1 Carbine, knocking the scope out of alignment and bending it might increase your odds of hitting what you are aiming at. John | |||

M1 carbine? customized is time wasted,they suit only the original stock.. Your not using your talent! Do a Mauser or a PRE 64. That will keep you from going insane!  Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||
