Okay, I don't think much of the DAS but tell me what you're thinking. Don't hold me to task now, I don't have the image engrained in my mind like Borecky would so I'd have to refer back to a known good one I have to make sure.
The stars look way too arched-they should be straighter. The box is also too tall. The stars should be closer to the top of the box. But I'm probably wrong-usually am.
How can you tell how tall the box is? It's gosh darn golly gee worn off at the top.
It may just my eyes, but it looks like the eagle is facing to the right. I thought it's suppose to be facing left
The head is correct it’s just so lightly struck that the grain makes it look funny.
I purchased this as a Post War SA stock and my first thought when I opened it was SA Replacement Stock, with later humped DAS. I only have one known good SA post war stock to compare it to and the DAS is definitely different. That said it does look closer to a known good HRA .5 DAS that is lightly struck (the HRA DAS seems to have more arch to the stars but this much). I have looked at allot of pictures and have seen some that look very similar.
I do not have enough experience to begin to call somebody out on this one so I figured I would ask and see what others thought.
Otherwise, it is a clean stock with good lockup. Just overpriced, if it is in fact a humped replacement.
here is one that a Guy just received fron CMP,and posted on CMP forum.

Ryan, you made me take these out of the safe as I'm confused myself. The top is a 1/2" DAS, and the bottom is a 3/8" DAS. Both are from the CMP. I bought them personally. The 3/8 looks diff than the 1/2 for sure? Stu
