Thanks COBrien, I found an old SE Overton stock from a guy on RFC.

Just simply the nicest oem walnut stocks ever on a 1022. Tipically black walnut with beautiful grain complete with aluminum buttplate. How was the price... if you don't mind revealing?

I think they were priced very well at $75, shipped. Compared to Ebay that was about the going rate and there was no getting sniped at the last seconds of the auction. I will post some pics when I get this project finished. It is a beautifully figured piece of black walnut. Due to the way they are milled out it is even about 4 oz lighter than the original birch stock.

Look forward to seeing the finished product. The configuaration does make them lighter. I've run across some which have been hogged out in the buttstock for balance as well.
I read somewhere that back in the 60's when and if they didn't measure up to Ruger's likin'/specs they were placed on the burn pile. :wacko:
Oh the humanity!

Looks good! Back in the day each plate was fitted to each stock...All that for $64.00
