They are all cut down. If you found original HG you be looking at $400-$500. The original stock for a 607 goes for around $1200US.
 
Or you could buy a new made reproduction ;)

New made copies of the triangle forearm for the CAR carbine. Complete with aluminum heat shields. The originals are almost impossible to find. You will appreciate the work that went into these.

Even originals are cut downs. All they did was make a rear cap to hold the handguard a together. I don't imagine that hey would be too hard to recreate with some hardwood blocks and a shop press.

Funny, I've got a few sets of M16 handguards that I picked up for a song a few years back. Now guys are asking $100, WTF??

They were in short supply before, and now they're in high demand as there's a retro-build fad going on. Jacks the prices up.
