Default Presentation Stocks Wood Type?

Can anyone identify what type of wood these N-frame presentation stocks are? I was thinking maybe really light colored GA's, but they are really light. Thanks.

Could be Osage Orange, but more likely just an extremely plain example of Goncalo Alves as Doc44 said.

Definitely GA. Osage is more orange and no dark grain.

Yes, I agree Gonswaylo Alvay. I like them very much and would love to have them on one of my guns.

Thanks guys. I had a feeling they were GA's. They are really slick looking in person.
