Supposedly, the stock was numbered after fitting to the gun.

For commercial pistols, that's even more interesting. How did factory know future customer would want that stock. They did not know. Blindly making a stock for every gun could be waste. The most efficient way would be: matching stocks to guns after receiving customer order. Probably past statistics could tell them the rough ratio of gun and stock to make, so they could do production planning.

For contract pistols, that decision was easy. The stock option must be specified in contact.
