Looking for American classic airguns

[45flint]

It is un stained maple; the previous owner, a collector who had the Crosman for 11 years, rejuvenated the stock. Correct me if I'm wrong but I have understood that the stocks were stained maple.

Yes the stocks were stained maple but yours is one of the last made given it is a thin stock, through safety with serial number, probably made 1950-1 In the 1950s they started using elm and I am sure yours is elm, I’ve seen so many elm Crosman stocks. The graining is very distinctive. I was looking at that gun on Gunbroker for a week and was thinking of buying it just because of the stock! See what others think: here is the link you sent me. Again yours is the only 108 I’ve seen, that is very cool. If it’s not the only one it is certainly one of the very few.
