Yes. Yes.
Ithica used the same basic receiver for their 37s. You can find a used butt stock and with minor fitting make it work. Many manufactures produce after market stocks both wood and synthetic. Try looking on eBay, there is a seller making aftermarket stocks for Winchester mannlicher rifles. i don't remember his screen name but he will do other models as well. He uses a copy-cat machine but his work is good, however the stocks are not a "rare find". They are current production.
Numrich (gunpartscorp) shows different part numbers for the 20, 16, and 12 gauge stocks. They claim to sell all three although they are sometimes out of stock.

A 12 gauge buttstock will not fit a 16 gauge receiver due to the size difference. A 20 gauge buttstock may fit, but it's recommended to find a replacement specifically designed for the 16 gauge model to ensure proper fit and function. There are companies like the Ithaca Gun Company that reproduce Ithaca Model 37 firearms and parts.

Where is the receiver on a gun?
The receiver is the frame of a firearm- in modern firearms, it is the part that the barrel connects to. Antique firearms, such as muzzle loading rifles, did not have a receiver- only the lock, stock, and barrel. (Yes, that is where the expression came from) On a modern firearm, if it has a serial number, it is stamped on the receiver. By US law, a receiver IS a firearm- everything else is parts.
How do you change the butt stock on a MAK-90?
Remove the top receiver cover. At the rear of the receiver, you'll see two screws which go through the tang and into the buttstock. Remove those. If you have the thumbhole stock, you'll also have to remove the screw from the bottom of the grip section of the buttstock. As for installing a new stock, it depends on which one you get... some may require modification to the receiver, while others won't, although you might still have to grind down the tang to fit.
Can you sell a AR-15 lower receiver without a license?
Yes. If it's an assembled rifle lower, you treat it the same as any other private sale of a rifle. If it's a stripped receiver, it's an assembled pistol receiver (or was sold to you as such), or it's an assembled receiver minus the buttstock assembly, you need to act in accordance with the laws of your state for selling a handgun.

How do you tighten stock Stevens model 67 series e?
Remove the buttplate. Take a very large flat-bladed screwdriver (about 18") and insert it into the hole in the back of the buttstock and tighten the very large screw that attaches the buttstock to the receiver. Shine a light down the hole in the stock & you will see the very large screw.
Where is the receiver on a browning shotgun?
The receiver is the largest metal piece of the shotgun, in other words, the frame of the shotgun. All the other parts, such as barrel, stock, bolt, etc- attach to the receiver. With modern firearms, the receiver will be marked with the serial number. Legally, the receiver IS the firearm- all other parts are simply parts.

Does anybody know anything about a Stevens double barrel 410 with 2 triggers a plastic forestock and a pointer engraved on the side of the receiver?
I know that if it has a plastic (tenite) forestock it also had a plastic buttstock. Manufactured probably in the 1940's or 50's.
Where is the gun serial number?
All depends on the gun itself. On a revolver, it'll be somewhere on the frame. On an automatic pistol, it's usually on the slide, although some (such as the Glock) have it on the lower receiver. On rifles and shotguns, it'll typically be somewhere on the receiver, although some older military rifles will have it in a number of places - Mosin Nagant rifles, for example, have serial numbers on the receiver, magazine, buttstock, and bolt - in the case of these being mismatched, the serial number on the receiver, or else the one placed on it with the importer's mark - is to be considered the correct serial number.
Is it possible to buy a new receiver for JC Higgins model 36?
Briefly- no. First, Sears has been out of the firearms business since the late 1980s, so there are no new parts. Second, by law, a receiver IS the firearm (everything else is just parts) Buying a receiver is the equal of buying a complete working gun- and a receiver cannot be bought like other parts. Sorry-
