    Big help with mg42 wooden butt ok or fake

    Hi All
    What do you all think of this mg42 Butt, is it ok or a fake? There was a thread on here with one like this but had mixed reviews what about the markings?
    If ok would like to buy?

            Original but it's been stripped with some kind of chemicals. I have an original I'll post pics of later

                That is a fake stock. There are a few floating around. I purchased one for 75 to keep for comparison. The stampings are not the same and the hook for the hand is thinner and rounded not like the original. It is made to fool people.

                        Definitely a fake. They're all over deact MG42's at the minute in the UK. Nicer than an M53 stock for display, but still not an original at the end of the day.

                          Absolutely fake. The hook in completely different ans shaped wrong. The stamps are also wrong and the eagle stamp is different. Here is a pic of mine in the middle of a bunch of good ones.

                            The reinforced dowels are also to far forward. Since I forgot to mention that and the picture is posted showing there location. I also posted a pic in the other thread showing the wrong hook shape.
