How can you tell if a used super grade stock is for a one piece or two piece floor plate. thanks

2 or 3 screw hes when you pop the floorplate I believe.

Did they make 2 screw floorplate/trigger guards for pre 64- the only super grades that count. Stirring the pot with a sharp stick.

this is a post 64 stock for sale on internet. Owner dosent if its one or two piece. thanks

A good way to tell is by the depth of the front of the recess for the front guard screw; on the two piece, it is .190 inch deep. On the one piece, it is .350 deep. I just measured some for you.
What metal do you have? A two piece bottom can easily be installed in a one piece stock, using either an adapter they make for $8, or just use a washer under the front screw. I have used many new stocks, on old two piece rifles.
As for pre 64 ones, those are collectors items; not for serious use, and were not the quality you think they were. Like anything else, once you can't get it, guys worship it.

So true. Truthin' about pre 64 M 70's is a sure way to get a virtual black eye!

One more piece of hate PM won't hurt; I get them all the time for stuff I post! Thin skinned people should not read anything I write. Unless I am wrong, which I ain't.

My gun is a new model 70 Alaskan with a one piece floor plate. thanks. And yes i think the quality on the new Winchester is very good.
