The Finn is genuine; the Filmstuff piece is bogus. Look at the Finn and note the rod pocket coaxial with the mag pouch; note it is not present in the bogus piece.
Finns did indeed replace broken wooden stocks with locally fabricated ones; they also replaced holsters with German imports which were modified to fit board stocks. The modification consisted of complete removal of belt loops, adding the stock block and an attaching toe strap. These German mods are somewhat rare; I have owned one and seen two others; all were made in the Buchenvald Concentration Camp.
