[QUOTE="coolhandluke, post: 1764210, member: 13284"] You are exactly right Ronny. The US was looking to adopt a pistol grip for the 1903, but the straight stock blanks that were on hand were not large enough to allow for the full pistol grip of the C stock. The scant stocked rifle above has most likely been refurbed with the stock installed during that time. The metal finish also looks to be parkerized, which I believe would be further evidence of this (could possibly have been done by the Greeks though). Any other serial number or letters such as an X anywhere on the stock? [/QUOTE]
