I know I have seen this cheekpiece before. Particularly in the rear where the monte carlo is further to the rear than the back of the cheekpiece. The stock is on a custom Win 52 that appears to be pre-war work. Receiver dates from 1934.

That's a tough one John! Looks familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.

Execution looks really good - nice grip cap, checkering, buttplate fit, & stock oval.

Is that an Uncle Mike's swivel? That's the only thing I see that might be post-war, but could have been added later if it is.

I've seen Howe do that, and I have seen one attributed to Shelhamer, but not so sure about that one. I'll get more pictures posted when I can.

John, does the rest of the stock look like the one in this ad?

Gas, Nice looking rifle from the stern end, at first glance I thought John Hutton, but not quite the same shape. Dan.
