Try www.globelmilitarysurplus.com

Not in Flint, but close enough and Ken does an excellent job.

Here's what he did for me:

Ken didn't do the stock engraving, I had that done in Wyoming. But Ken does an excellent job, is reasonably priced and very easy to work with.

Ken is a great guy and does great work!
If you are in the Farmington/Livonia area he also has great rates on transfers.

That is one gorgeous M1. I wish I had the money to completely redo mine, but a pistol is next on my list.

I hope that's not the original stock you carved up.

Cool. Did you keep the original? Try refinishing it?
