Anyone can post a funny! Anyone? Here is a S-A marked in the slingwell! Look how crisp the this baby is with that CC, hardly any signs of sanding!  It would seem Springfield was not getting enough credit for their stocks because collectors could not find the marking in the slingwell, so to boost their street credibility, for future collectors, then started marking the slinwell as well, just like a real WW2 stock should!  In fairness to the seller he states he "restores" stocks and that he added the Springfield stamps.

A few months ago I ran across a needed round Winchester bolt on eBay for a very fair price. The seller stated that it was stamped with a "W". The pictures were crappy so I couldn't tell for sure, but I bought it. Turns out the stamped "W" was actually a paint stamped "M" and the bolt was a post-war replacement. I asked for a refund and it was granted. But the prique turned around a relisted it as a Winchester bolt and sold it to someone who didn't know better.
So now he has listed a USGI WW2 M-1 carbine C marked WINCHESTER barrel band w sling swivel Type 2 | eBay The pictures tell it all-   |

Amusing I got about halfway through. His comment about making their way to the trenches reminded me of the story of a visitor to a battlefield. The visitor supposedly says something to the effect of "Isn't a good thing this park was here so they would have a place for the battle." I've heard some comments pretty close to that so I can beleive it happened.  |

Snagged that pic off Gunbroker years ago, IRRC, nobody bid on it. Some sellers have absolutely no scruples. |

@Ping, unfortunately there is an individual selling refurbish services for stocks and putting farcical stamping on them, similar to what you show. Problem being they are being touted as original by some. Speaking of farcical, list the errors, misplacements, inaccuracies, etc. [TUBE]https://youtu.be/TyNIxFWsPcE[/TUBE] |
