[QUOTE="flatwins, post: 1749736, member: 5655"] It's the smaller of the two. I've given some thought about trying to locate the correct SA stock but haven't yet decided what I want to do. For the back story, this Garand came from the CMP around 15 years ago. My ex father-in-law went in with some of his fellow Air Guard buddies and they all got Garands. He fired his a bit but mostly it sat in the safe and he talked about selling it. I told him I'd take it so I bought it from him. Once Perplexed checked out the rifle it sealed the deal for me; it's a keeper. It has the original barrel and the muzzle wear is .75. This WRA the action tight and I'm tempted to keep it just as it is. It also has lock bars on the rear sight, which isn't correct. On the flip side, I have a soft spot for getting a rifle "correct" and I know someone out there is looking for a WRA stock. Anyhow, I still have to figure out just what I want to do with it. [/QUOTE]
