T3 WWII .30 Inland carbine stock - sniper rifle

[Darrell H]

I need to find an orginial T3 .30 carbine wood stock to complete a restoration project for a historically significant WWII military artifact. An Inland - Winchester or reproduction T3 stock will do. Can anyone help or offer some advice about where I can find this much need carbine part to complete this restoration?

Still looking for a T3 stock, Inland, Winchester or repro.

Very doubtful you are going to find one.

Only about 1,900 T3's were made.
And they were clasified "Secret" and most all of them destroyed after the war.

Believe it would be a standard stock milled for provision to mount the light source. No bayo lug on the front band.

Might want to consult Larry Ruth about the viability of restoring a rifle which never existed beyond status as an experimental test type. At least the serial number is prefixed "XB"?

Historically significant military artifact indeedy.

Trying to figure out if I should have kept my money?

Help,
I went to an auction and went nuts and spent $1,000.00 on what I initially identified as good value S&W's (3 each) and 1 Remington Woodmaster model 81, for $375.00(it is in great shape, sn# 499xx, with the production stamp of w uu, Aug, 1949) My concern comes in on the S&W's , I do not want to send Mr. Jinks for their history(yet) at $30.00 each(call me cheap) the first one is a model 10-5, 38 Special, SN# D3454xx ($245.00), (in great shape, just needs cleaning) The 2nd model is a 10-7, snubbie, also a S&W .38 SPL, SN# 3D862xx ($245.00), story goes it was the service wpn of the county sherriff for sometime. The last S&W is a model 19-4, SN# 38K71xx. Yup, a .357 magnum($200.00). I know this is a lot to ask, starting over again after a nasty die-vorce lost over 117 classy and valuable pieces of history:banghead:. Any thing you can send my way would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks in advance!!
