There was always a certain extent of hand fitting needed to get the stock attachment fit right. This is one reason that the stocks were originally numbered to the guns.

I unfortunately can't make out markings in your stock photos. If you can, try and take the pictures in shaded natural light using a tripod to eliminate camera shake, and the closeup setting on the camera to get sharp focus of any marking details. The self-timer will fire the camera without causing camera shake. Don't use flash.

I cannot make out any markings on stock (wood)at all. only the one on metal attachment.
