Yes, the buttstock is still very rock solid, but its not perfect, it has some cracks here and there. . . its also numbered 11733, i probably guess the gun would match the buttstock number? if yes, can anyone recover the story of 1921 TSMG s 11733, just to understand why the buttstock was separated from the gun. Many thanks. the main difference on the buttplate i notice between this and 1928a1's its in the cheek rest area, the shape is more flat compared to the 1928a1's. And those are also sligtly smaller,well built, and fit much tighter! http://i67.tinypic.com/o9jtog.jpg
