1928 M27, nut wood stock?

Post by Lee-online »

I picked this up online and just got it in the mail. After unboxing it I was surprised by how heavy it seemed. This got me to thinking about the nut wood stocked m27s.

This has been refurbed and has the stock markings just about erased. There is a faint mark on the right side, hard to make out other than its a line of numbers.


Regardless, glad I got this cool m27.

One piece Ski trooper stock with really nice grain, NEW receiver, no wings. No [SA] but has D mark. Scrubbed Arshins on rear sight.

Looks great and yes those numbers and letters on the right side of the stock would have indicated a possible restocked and uprated Finnish rifle. They are surrounded most times by a lined border too if that is maybe still visible. May have been done post war or late in war to keep a rifle up with the current modifications the Finn's were performing. Nut wood stock? with the figure that rifle shows on the tang area there it is likely a hard wood replacement and yes more than likely that fabled nut wood or a form of European Walnut and most wood workers seem to call it. Very nice rifle! Congrats! Billl
