This video explains the historical practice of 'duffel cuts' on firearms brought back by American servicemen from World War I and World War II. These cuts were made to stocks, typically under the barrel band, allowing longer rifles to fit into duffel bags for transport home. This method is distinguished from 'sporterizing' as the intent was to reassemble the rifle intact upon arrival. The description notes that duffel cuts can be valuable historical evidence, especially for WWI firearms due to the lack of formal paperwork at the time. It also clarifies that the absence of a duffel cut doesn't necessarily indicate anything, and cuts are less common on carbines than full-sized rifles.
