I saw this on the smith-wessonforum this morning. I have no association with the seller. I don't even know if it is a good price I don't need them for myself, and thought someone here might be interested.
Here is a quote from the message:
"1928 Thompson stocks that are new old stock! They have the cross bolt and never have had a screw put in. No nicks, scratches absolutely mint! $25"
Here is a link to the message:

At local guns shows (local to me, anyway) there's a guy who sells new '28 cross-bolt butt stocks with only the cross-bolt and washers for $6.00. He also has "select" ones (which are no better than the others in my opinion) for $20.00.
He won't say what he paid but he did say he bought hundreds of them from a couple who was burning them for firewood.

Okay, at the risk of being accused of Thompson Greed...
I've got a very nice '28 NON-cross bolt stock I'd like to sell.
It's STRIPPED, no metal whatsoever. No dings, or scratches to speak of,
except for one small, like a quarter inch, 'chip' at the edge of the slot where the
rear sling swivel goes. It has a nice straight grain pattern in the wood.
And the finish is nice and clean.
If I didn't already have an extra, I'd keep it.
So, I'd like to sell it for $45 including 1st class postage.
Email me if you're interested.
