They did, but all the Klein's advertisements I've looked at offered them specifically as war surplus, including the shortened versions, with the original finish, original-style smooth stocks, and the lanyard still in place.
PS: Same with the .38 Spl. BSR which Lee Harvey Oswald ordered from Seaport Traders. Converted and shortened, and minus the swivel, but otherwise original. No nickel, no fake stags. So not all purveyors went for that look.
