OfflineThere’s a stock and butt plate for sale on eBay with what I believe is a Schuetzen style butt plate. It’s advertised as for a Model 1894 but the arms look too short and the bitt plate is wrong. I think it’s for an 1886.
Just posting in case anyone is searching for something like this.

OfflineThat is a Ballard style Swiss butt plate, and the stock it is on is for a high-wall Single Shot (a.k.a. Model 1885). Winchester used the Ballard style Swiss butt plates on the very early production Single Shot rifles when so ordered.
