Anyone have a source for quality early style carbine stocks? All I can find seem extremely cheap...
Thanks

They've been popping up on the EE lately but you've got to be quick to grab the good ones.

I'd like a source, too. Sherluk used to have 'em, but their website is down at the moment.
Stag seems to have discontinued theirs.

Don't know what's in stock at the moment but M&A had milspec 5 position plastic CAR stocks for ~$55. For Aluminum - Essential Arms is the way to go.

There's a vintage Colt stock on GB now, but it's broken.

Glad I wasn't around to see what precipitated THAT!!! Looks like it hurt.

Indeedy.
No good source for the stocks except patience - 'twill yield a stock for you in time, mayhaps on the EE.

I bought a colt stock this week on the EE. I bought the 2 pos. tube 1 day, & the "N" & "1" marked stock body the next. You just have to keep looking & get lucky.
