I've seen pics of 633's and replicas with A1 and A2 lowers, and with Gen II aluminum as well as fiberlite stocks.  Anyone know what is authentic?

RO633's, by virtue of being commercial models, and not official military issue, there were any number of variations, the 633 being a "transitional" model produced while production was being converted from A1 to A2, and more or less used whatever remained in stock, to include A1 lowers and vinyl acetate stocks, transferring over to A2 lowers and fiberlite stocks when the stock had diminished.

Thanks for the replies, guys.  I guess that means I can build my replica whichever way feels good.

Not there yet, one of our board members is helping me reprofile the barrel and pin the FSB.  Once I get it back, I need a bolt, thinking about maybe one of the ADCO ramped numbers.  Then I have to decide whether to use my carefully saved Colt Gen II stock, or slap a fiberlite on it.
