jim Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 How do you tell the difference between and original Colt horizontal fore end and a WWII fore end? Is there any markings on the original Colt that are not on the WII ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Fliegenheimer Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 WWII will have markings while the Colt would not. But the front of the grip has a rounded contour and offset Enfield sling swivels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gijive Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Here is a re-post of some pictures I took about a year ago showing the differences between a genuine Colt horizontal fore end and a WWII Savage variety. The Colt grip is the one with the Enfield type swivel attached. The pictures should explain the differences, which are exactly as Arthur previously mentioned. http://members.aol.com/gijive/ColtGrip.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
