I was at a LGS today and they had a 1957 vintage 62A. Gun was S,L and LR I believe. The thing that caught my attention was that the forearm was checkered. The receiver wasn’t roll stamped WINCHESTER like some I’ve read about. The forearm wasn’t a homemade job. The butt stock was smooth with no checkering. Were these guns offered like this or did someone swap a forearm?

Mike,
Mismatched wood is a strong hint that something is not original.
