Default Model 60s

I picked these two M60s up at a sheriff's auction a few weeks ago. Both were pretty dirty and I had to re-finish the stocks. I had never seen a stock like the one on the left. Ser# on left is 6800xx and on right is BAA43xx. I can't find the BAA serial number listed in the SCSW but I noticed BBA is listed twice (1988,1999) so I wonder if it is a typo? They sure make a handsome pair.

Reckon they will handle Plus P's??

The stocks on the left/bottom are factory J frame round butt target's. They were sold as aftermarket accessories.

Nice pair. I reckon they would eat +P, but I would not have them on my table for their consumption.

Yes. Often referred to derisively as "banana stocks." My wife has a pair on her 2" Model 34-1 Kit Gun and she likes them a lot.

Very nice grab.

I'm especially fond of the one with the six-digit serial number. I'd guess 1968. The bananas are a neat addition.
