Just a word of caution, Richard's stocks for Mausers are generally not a drop in fit. In fact, quite a bit of work is required to fit them (I ordered one for an FN mauser, and it had to have a LOT of material removed. Also, remember that laminates are tough on tools. i.e. I wouldn't use my best scrapers or chisels on them. The resin used to make the laminate tears up/dulls steel tooling (hence why you don't see many with hand checkered patterns...surest way to trash your checkering tools...experience talking here).
