Now there is the problem. When I put the pics side by side they look darn close. But side by side with my SA CG is a different story and it matches allot of others I have seen. I guess I just need to match up some HG's and call it good. It is a clean stock either way.Originally Posted by Prince Humperdink

And here is a pic of it side by side with the CG stock and then the SA CG SA (pic 3) and a HRA (pic 2) DAS. Both CMP purchases. Does not look like the pic you posted from the CMP?
Still confussed but it's all good.

What I don't know would fill volumes. I think we need Borecky on this one.
When dealing with liberals, always attribute to malice what would ordinarily be attributed to incompetence.

So I found a pic of two CG's I received last year. Not the best pic but now that I look at them they even look different.

That DAS is real but is not sure if it is the late SA production from what I can tell. It does look as if the head is close enough to the wings to be a IHC stamp who had the arched stars throughout productions. It could also be just worn from age making it look this way. There has been a weird one showing up all of the sudden on HRA's but I know that the real stamps for a few DAS's is out there and I am very suspicious on how all of the sudden HRA's are showing arched stars in the last year.

Rick, as I inferred and was shut down by Stu, I believe this DAS is real too but are you saying that it's an HRA? What am I missing guys? The back porch on the thing is SA in my mind, even though I can't see a very good back porch photo. The "P" looks SA too. Someone explain this to me, what maker is this stock supposed to be?

Rick,
Thanks for the info. Never considered it being an IHC stamp. I have seen some pics on the CMP and on other sites showing a similar DAS on SA stock but pics are deceiving.

An IHC stamp? I can't keep up, I'm so lost I can't even begin to explain it. Are we saying that this is an IHC stamp on an SA stock now? Someone splain it all to me.
Tim, It is a SA stock for sure, no question. My only concern is that it was a 'NOS' replacement SA stock that had been stamped after the fact because the DAS did not look like right to my very untrained eye.Rick, as I inferred and was shut down by Stu
That and the fact that it has no wear (including the butt plate and sling points), almost no indication of ever being installed, no color (looks like new walnut) and/but has three separate bullet tip impressions from seating in the clip on the stock.
