As shown in Eric's great photo there was no flap overstrap or stock boot on Imperial Navy type 1 stock rigs. I think it might have been for both of the reasons and a couple more..
I never could figure why the stock boot is made the way it is..Trapping moisture was always possible, they had no drain hole.
Two different rigs that's for sure!
