I can't say for sure this was WWII issue, but about 30 years ago I bought a milsurp M37 buttstock from Numrich. It came with a Parkerized steel buttplate, which may still be in my shop somewhere.

I'd love an M37 trench gun but that's a dream that will never materialise. I live in England and our laws dictate that pump action shotguns must have a barrel that's at least 24".
I have an 1897 that someone has previously cut done to 24" and I also have one of the few remaining parkerised DSPS with a 24" barrel that were imported in the early 80s. I love that gun and I'd like to know how many are left. Gun laws have changed since then and some will have been surrendered and others restricted to meet the newer laws for shotgun certificates (we have a 2 tier system here for general firearms ownership)
