...but someone had used a stock that they had, and it was curved like a Winchester or the like.
Folks seemed to feel that it was 'not original' enough looking...

Folks are right. The new buttstock not only looks much better but allows you to sight down the barrel, not have to scrunch your head over on its side.

I don't see a wedge. How'd you/Jim/Don/Gerry fasten the forearm to the frame extension???

It’s a 1920 carbine that I put a navy sight on it

Ah. I didn't notice the rear sight. I had visions of German sailors going ashore on a tropical island and hunting wild boars...

With a screw from the bottom!

I believe that was a fairly common repair for broken-off wedge slots...Sometimes with a brass escutcheon inlaid into the forearm...
