[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 2395515, member: 7157"] If you mean me, my name isn't Tim :D Re: the back porch, I'd want to see its size relative to the heel of the receiver. On a HRA, it'd be significantly larger than the heel, while on an SA or IHC, it'd be smaller. I used to have a pic showing the differences between an SA, WRA, HRA, and IHC stock set side by side, but I can't find it just now. Here's a pic of what I think is an SA stock so you'll know what I mean: [img]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i738.photobucket.com_albums_xx29_Perplexed0_Neat_SN_zps5fd1d843.jpg[/img] This stock is pretty fat side to side, but it doesn't extend far past the rear of the heel. It could be a post-war Overton replacement stock, but since I don't have this rifle any more, I can't say for sure. As for the trigger housing trade, it depends on what you want to do with the rifle. Do you want to go ahead and start correcting the rifle, or keep what may be an intact-since-rebuild M1? If I get lucky with a 1960s SA rebuilt rifle, I'll keep it "as is" unless there's a broken or badly-worn part. [/QUOTE]
