Really nice Rick....
Ever thought of a Display stand for a Garand or Carbine made from stock?

Few years ago I seen a 3 leg corner table. The legs were Asian M2 carbine stocks. Looked nicer than I'll be able to describe.

Cheers and Congrats on the Retirement in early 18,

Rick B this is just amazing! Are there any post war stocks in the mix or are they all WWII?

[Rick B]

No Post War. All were WWII with a few .22 trainers and some 1903 A3 and 1917 Enfield stocks. Rick B

Picked up the final load of Barn Wood. We had left what we thought was scraps in a large pile and had one truck load left. I had a serious back injury just before I was to go up for the final load 3 years ago and could not drive the 7 hours there and 7 hours back. I finally made time last Wednesday and pulled ever last scrap out. I was surprised to find my helpers had tossed some good fixable stuff into this pile and 5 No trap stocks that were just the middle to back ends. I have a ton of front end sections and have already put some back together so I am hoping to find the fronts to these. Found a few more Trench art pieces also. Rick B

Ive been working with Rick for the past 2 months on hard to find M1 Carbine Stocks and he has been a professional businessman, a gentleman, and is a most favored advisor / educator now :-)

His amazing story has only grown more relevant as the scarcity and value of M1 Garands and M1 Carbines stocks have increased in value and need over the past 3 years since this was last posted on.

If you looking for that really hard to find Stock - contact Rick !
