Two of them are newly built, one of them without a bolt is a 1945 SA, waiting on a period correct bolt and oprod. The 4th one is 50s dated SA with an original conversion 308 barrel as far as I can tell..

hey .. is the blonde a walnut stock ? nice ! i've notice that some of the young walnuts can be much lighter than the oldy stuff

M1's are awesome

Looks like a birch arsenal replacement stock to me. I like them

 

[Zdragunov]

The blond one is Boyd's. That's how it turned out after oiling it up.

The "A A" stands for Augusta Arsenal. These letters plus the numbers indicate a particular lot number for rebuild/overhaul at Augusta.

Thanks for the info, I never knew that about them.
