What is this stock ??

It's for a Japanese toy / replica pistol.

And, yes, current day European museums are dumb enough to put toys in their display cases.

I remember seeing a Portuguese Byf 42 with holster on display in a museum in Luxembourg, being presented as a WW1 Imperial luger... And worse...

With a bit of fiddling, these toy versions will actually fit a real luger. But the metal is too soft to be of any real use in the long term. They also exist as 'telescopic stocks' and 'artillery stocks'.
