I posted a video on YouTube showing modifications I made to an M1A stock. I covered the operating rod, made a fuller pistol grip, and made a removable cheek piece riser for scope use. I never liked the other cheek piece options, and decided to make my own, I am very pleased with how it turned out.
If you have an M1A and want another cheekpiece option for scope use, check the video out.
