M44/ Boyd's replacement wood stock question

[Ironhorse522]

I have a 1948 m44 beautiful rifle shoots well. Anyway the original stock is in great shape but is too short for me. My question is that if I replace the wood stock with one from Boyd's can I still keep the bayonet? I don't want to lose the bayonet for obvious zombie / hog defense. Plus I just like it.
Does anybody have any experience with this?

Basicly I want to semi sporterize without doing anything that can't be reversed. What I'm wondering is how the ati replacement stocks or Boyd's stocks work with the bayo still attached

There are recoil pads that mount where the steel plate mounts at the butt. Those usual give a longer LOP.
