I found an old metal 3 position stock in one of my parts cabinets.
It has a C stamped on the side.

Colt???

sounds like a colt part the old colts had rubber over metal for the stock --not the plastic we see today.

really old ones were two position-- i guess it was just too much work to drill a couple extra holes--LOL

damn tan --you eyes must be getting like mine--LOL

Yes they are, time for a new set of glasses.
After work I'll post a picture of it. It feels almost like some kind of pot metal and has a texture to it.

Pretty cool though because I forgot I even had it. Complete w/spring and buffer.

Here's what it looks like.

And for those that are not familiar, that is the Maryland rendition of the First National Flag of the Confederacy.

Marylands star is a silhouette because our lawfully elected legislature was arrested by federal troops.

We won't get fooled again.

Anyway......
