wanted: pro sport stock!!

[gurtwurz 793]

hi lads, has anybody got a standard beech pro sport stock in any condition that they dont want, as i need one for a project i'm working on and dont want to have to use my walnut one unless i really need to.

 

i'm gonna try on the aaoc as well but i thought i'd try here first.

 

cheers, wurz

Hope you find one Wurz

thanks bill, so do i mate!

 

hoping to build a tactical stock from resin/fibreglass, possibly even a stutzen style one(i'm still hankering for a stutzen ...) cos i keep scratching that lovely walnut when beating through the brambles up the valley..

Sounds very interesting Wurz, look forward to seeing your progress buddy.

Could you not cover the Walnut stock in Bees Wax and use it for the template / mould /

thats my last resort bill, cos it'll be a git to clean up afterwards, but if i have to then so be it!!

Wurz, if you need to use your walnut stock as a mould lightly coat it with silicon grease first and whatever you use (within reason!!) won't stick and the silicon will not damage or stain the wood

 

Sounds interesting, mate, good luck!!

cheers andy, i'll bear that in mind mate.

 

the only problem i can see apart from minging up my stock is getting the weight of the new one right, as i dont want a lightweight version, hence really why we're doing it as a stutzen, so theres a bit extra up front weightwise, and i'll lose the scooped out bit on the offside of the monte carlo stock in order to maintain the center of balance as it is now.

 

gonna start it after the next leg of the southern hunters comp, in a couple of weeks.

 

cheers, wurz
