Quite a lot of replacement wood stocks were made for repairs even during normal production of the M1A1.

Springfield Armory (the real one) made replacement M1A1 stocks.
They were used post WWII. They do not have any IO in wood
channel of course. Just know these surface from time to time and
are not fake repro stocks.
Back in the 80s a gunshow seller that I knew had two of those NOS M1A1 replacement stocks. I don't remember, if I ever knew where he got them. But I think he told they came packed two in a bag. Another carbine collector bought one and keep it in his collection for years. If you ever went to the old Bagnell Dam Show you would have saw it. They didn't work real well. They were highwood with the late RI pistol grip. If I remember correctly the Carbine Club thought the only place they would be correct was early in the second run of M1A1s. That was years ago they may have found they weren't then either.
