Gentlemen:
The guys on the US Militaria Forum have pointed out a new online article by American Rifleman which discusses the small arms rebuild program at FN during and after WW2. There are some interesting photos in the article, including one showing a line up of M1A1 stocks. The article indicates that FN rebuilds were completely unmarked. Here is the link to the article: Worth a look. Regards, Charlie

Charlie, thanks for sharing.
(TM 9-1276 Cal. .30 Carbines M1, M1A1, M2, M3, U.S. Government Printing Office, 1953, paragraph 24, page 51) "All carbines rebuilt must be stamped with the initials of the rebuilding establishment in the United States; weapons rebuilt by oversea depot shops are not to be stamped |
