Thank you. I do see that the M1A has a different stock shape than the M14.
What am I missing? I have a SA M1A older NM gun sitting here with the M1A wood stock and I have a few other stocks here including a USGI M14 wood stock. The only difference I am seeing is the small notch cutout where the selector would fit on a M14. Other than that small cutout the stocks in walnut seem pretty much identical.
Look at the post above mine at a USGI stock. Notice on the new springfield in the area in front of the magazine the contour is much different. This bothers me.

The plan is to get a standard M1A, add a USGI stock from Freds, add a faux selector, a USGI extractor since I hear the Springfield ones often break, and USGI Web sling.

The PTR is for sale, guys. Thank you for helping me make my decision. Just ain't no point in me keeping a gun around that I don't think is the one for me. Should have done what I always should have and got an M1A from the start.
