Lee Six's company.
Company made one of the first injection molded rifle stocks. I had one of the early ones and IIRC, was molded from a GE formulated plastic trade named Noryl. It was heavy and slippery when wet. Looks like you have one of those.
Six later discontinued the injection molded stocks and went back to making high end BR stocks

Lee Six was Chet Brown's partner when they started out. They split around 1976 or so and Lee formed his own company. I liked Lee Six sporter stocks better than Brown Precision only because the molding was better which made fitting and finishing easier. The Six stocks were a bit heavier because they used more resin. Sporter styles were a bit thicker in the grip. BR stocks from the two companies were similar in design and construction though they diverged a bit as time went by. I think it was around 1984 that Lee Six started making the IM stocks which, just like similar offerings today, were really just cheap crap. Lee was a very nice fellow to deal with and a fun competitor at BR matches. GD
