Sorry guys, I couldn't find my original post to add the photos to so here is a new one. This post will show the characteristics of the 2nd Generation Version 1 , 2 and 3. Version 1 is a plain aluminum non coated stock made by NEWTON NEW HAVEN for Colt , Newton NewHaven also produced the 2nd version stock, the vinyl - Acetate coated Aluminum stocks. I have here an uncoated early version, a Vinyl-Acetate coated Aluminum stock stamped 1 [NN] , another Vinyl-Acetate coated Aluminum stock with 2 [NN] and a vinyl, plastic, stock with the 1N markings. The mold markings on the Gen 2 1st version all aluminum stock : Mold 1 and [NN] , underside of lever is marked Newton NewHaven and the #3 The lever pin is left in the white and the bottom of the stock and inside of the lever are hand stamped D2...possible a Tool room number or stamped for trials parts...The mold markings on the 2nd Version aluminum vinyl coated stocks: Mold # 1 [NN] , lever underside stamped 2 and Newton NewHaven 2nd Version with Mold #2 [NN] , lever underside stamped 4 and Newton NewHaven 3rd Version All Plastic , Mold 1 and N More photos to follow.
