Odds are it's a take-off for a reason.. Pac-Nor makes a pre-'64 contour and I've installed a couple on actions.. They're excellently done and a good smith can mill the dovetails necessary for the proper sights (if you have a set) and the barrel screw in the stock.. Most, however, don't bother with that operation; just having the original contour fit into an original stock looks mighty fine.. Ex- USN (SS) '66-'69 Pro-Constitution. LET'S GO BRANDON!!!
