Period Correct K98k Stock

[GeeOwn]

Hi! I have an “f” block BYF 43 that needs a new stock (the one it currently has is not matching). I was thinking about ordering one from Fox Military but I’m unsure what to get as I want one that would be period correct. I like the idea of a cupped hardwood stock but did they issue them as late as July of 43? Would a laminate one be better?

Laminate cupped buttplate stock would have been more common. However, Mauser Oberndorf (byf) is known to have used walnut stocks , to some degree, in every year of their WWll production. So either would be period correct.

Thank you!

You can probably find a correct original stock here on the forums trader. 43-44 Mauser-Oberndorf stocks aren't uncommon.
