You might check out GAS. here is the website: www.gunstocks.com They have 95% finished gunstocks there in all forms of wood quality and shapes. You can pick your stock form and pick your wood quality.

I would call them and see what they say. I know they make a stocks for the CZ. I purchased four stocks from them and I am quite happy with them. I also do all my own woodwork, so that is a factor as well.

That is 8.5 inches from the front ring of the action or 8 inches if you are going to add a Ebony FE tip, a half inch either way won't make much difference and that is about what the rifle in the pictures looks like in the forend, looks very nice...the short forend goes with the barrel band swivel..I would make the comb straight for iron sights even if I intended to use a scope, at least all mine are set up that way and it works great for me. Basically that is an English designed stock.

Thanks Ray for the info on the fore-end business. I will put on a sling swiwel of some sort on the barrel. I thought about making the comb straight but that would mean a little too much drop for the open sights for myself anyway. It�s a little too low already. That�s why I chose the MC.

But as far as aesthetics and functionality are concerned I�d choose my .404 Mauser any day..

Boha,

Right now the forend looks quite good. I myself like them slim since I have small hands. Shaped somewhat like a pear (the fruit) it makes the stock sit real nicely in your hands. That cheekpiece looks strange due to the small size. You may think it over whether you could lose it and go with a flat sided buttstock. Please remove the hogback. No rifle needs to be damned to a life with one of those.

Point taken nitroman!


Really, you can see on the stock the mark of my cheek (after getting the twins to bed, reading stories and then rehearsing african geography for an exam with the middle one and checking on the math homework of the oldest, and then finally working on the stock, I really worked up a sweat!)
I am a stock crawler, so a cheekpiece really doesn�t matter. So who needs a MC, anyway. It still points OK. And you are so right, hogbacks are for hogs and masochists.

Can�t wait to get the alkanet on.. God but I love working the walnut.

Oh and if you trust the verassity of his statement, cewe, my former friend, had bushbuck filet and malt whisky for supper last night somewhere in the bush close to the tropic of the Capricorn. I comfort myself with the fact that my trophies of last year just might arrive tomorrow.

Alkenet red oil on.

it�s Ok I guess.

Cewe got his gemsbok and a bushbuck.

Now that's nice and esthetically pleasing to the eye. Every time I see a EURO stock on a rifle, I start to puke. I can work with metal as there is only so much you can take off with handtools but am all thumbs when working with wood. You have a real talent.

Boha,
Glad you cut the hump off the comb..Looks great with the red oil finish...

Jim Brockman Guns, Gooding Idaho, 208-934-5050 makes a drop in stock that is very simular to that design off my pattern stock of English design..Laminate or walnut..not expensive at all for what it is..about $225. for the laminate and price dependant on wood for walnut....They are turned on a cnc machine and you can get them finished or finish them yourself and save a few bucks.

Richards Micro-fit makes a very nice classic stock for the CZ. It is listed as the "Old Classic". Iy has a very nice shadow line cheek piece and an open pistol grip, which really saves the knuckles from hitting the trigger guard on a hard kicker. I have used their stocks several times and their quality is great. They have a great selection of woods and grades plus terriffic laminates. Prices are excellent.

Great job on the CZ stock.
