I would like to build a replica/tribute rifle of a "classic" USMC M14 match rifle. (see pic #1 of real examples). I have a rear lugged SAI M1A receiver (with torque screw set-up), and recently got a nice 1995 dated USMC marked Barnett/Douglas heavy profile barrel that would make such a project doable. (see pics 2 & 3). I also have a 1990 dated USMC marked barrel that I could potentially offer as trade fodder for a take-off stock.
WTB a proper take-off USMC M14 stock for this project. I have seen some of these stocks sell a few years - but I was not interested in one at the time, but now that I have a USMC marked heavy barrel, I am now motivated to find an M14 forest camo stock worthy of the barrel. I am not interested in a civilian McMillan stock for this project - must have the M14 selector cut, proper 3-color forest camo pattern, and inleted for a rear lugged receiver - as seen on real M14 off stocks.
Examples of the type of stock I am seeking (these are obviously real USMC rifle team M14s):
Top barrel is what I want to use with this project:

Any assistance is greatly appreciated, thanks.
