Not really wanting to go this route but just wondering since they are a fraction of the price of an original.

You would have to buy a set and try it. My guess is they would require fitting if they were close. If you are considering them why not use the Winchester third model plates?

This is just a last ditch move if I can’t find originals in a timely manner.

Because I have a first model that’s just missing the plates. Probably won’t go with fake but was just wondering.

I would wait until you find the right parts.
