When you say it is a build-up, do you mean that you laminated it yourself? If so, could you please post details (here or as a new topic in the gunsmithiung forum)?

Well, ship it of to robertsons composits in canada. Costs $1500 to copy it, and around $250 per copy. Roberstons composits are high quality syntetic stocks. (I know, its not wood, but try having them mix their coulours to make it look like wood??)

questioneer, that is just a $65 boyds stock. i use a product called S1 sealer, which is basically a two-part epoxy thinned with solvents. When you flood the surface until it won't take anymore, you get a very hard and tough finish when cured. You sand it back level with the wood and apply some tru-oil or silmilar.

Now on the subject of laminating, about 15 years ago, I made some blanks for my cross-the-course rifles. The internet didn;t exist and I had no idea you could buy blanks from Rutland plywood or anyone else. There is a snowboard mfg shop that had a mountain of trimmed birch veneer, some dyed, some plain. We cut blank shapes and laminated them with G3 epoxy and a zillion clamps. Messy and time consuming, but it worked. PM me if you want more info or pics

A lesson in irony

The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free Meals and Food Stamps ever, to 46 million people.

Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us... "Please Do Not Feed the Animals." Their stated reason for the policy is because "The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."

Thus ends today's lesson in irony.

Alright, a picture of my 9.3x62 built on a Brno VZ action by Mike Kizler of California with the first animal I shot using it.


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

No, but the metalwork is done very well...
