Sorry guys, I couldn't find my original post to add the photos to so here is a new one. This post will show the characteristics of the 2nd Generation Version 1 , 2 and 3. Version 1 is a plain aluminum non coated stock made by NEWTON NEW HAVEN for Colt , Newton NewHaven also produced the 2nd version stock, the vinyl - Acetate coated Aluminum stocks. I have here an uncoated early version, a Vinyl-Acetate coated Aluminum stock stamped 1 [NN] , another Vinyl-Acetate coated Aluminum stock with 2 [NN] and a vinyl, plastic, stock with the 1N markings.






The mold markings on the Gen 2 1st version all aluminum stock :
Mold 1 and [NN] , underside of lever is marked Newton NewHaven and the #3
The lever pin is left in the white and the bottom of the stock and inside of the lever are hand stamped D2...possible a
Tool room number or stamped for trials parts...







The mold markings on the 2nd Version aluminum vinyl coated stocks:
Mold # 1 [NN] , lever underside stamped 2 and Newton NewHaven






2nd Version with Mold #2 [NN] , lever underside stamped 4 and Newton NewHaven




3rd Version All Plastic , Mold 1 and N





More photos to follow.
Thanks Tucker

That uncoated aluminum stock is sexy. Only one I'm missing.

The uncoated 1st version here is one of the cleanest I've ever seen. Most others that have ever become available are usually showing their age and use. I was extremely lucky to obtain this beautiful condition stock.
