The unfortunate thing is someone took a prewar type C stock and cut that down. I don't know what an excellent condition prewar type C stock is worth, but I bet it is a lot more than the $150.00 I paid the CMP for a new WW2 version.

Maybe $300? $400?

I have a beat up one and it cost me a like new scant grip and some money, and that was twenty years ago.

A guy I knew showed me a M1903A4 rifle his Dad had acquired. Dad got it while in post WW2 service in Japan. The stock was cut down, recoil pad installed, carved with monkeys and bamboo patterns, with a pseudo cheek piece. It was a real work of wood carving art. It had been blued and a modern scope installed.

It would have been worth a thousand in original condition with the original scope. What it was worth after all the oriental artwork, heck if I know. I wanted it for the action, did not get action, stock or scope, because it was his Dad's, but I would not paid much anyway.
