My stock just arrived today from a little augmentation by my friend Gary Stiles. Told Gary to make it bigger and softer than the factory pad. Here are a few photos of his work.





The first two photos make the color look much brighter that it is in reality…guess it is that funky flash stuff. The last two look closer to the real thing. I am very happy with how the pad turned out. I believe the leather is Bear hide and colored to some secret recipe that is only used on fine rifles and shotguns. LOP is now perfect for me and the gun is ready to return to Africa in a few weeks.

Anyone looking for something similar can contact Gary at (724) 479-9945. Evenings is the best time to catch him as he is typically working on some gun project in his workshop. This cost me less than Chapuis wanted for the crappy rubber block they install in France….

Thanks again Gary!

We're going to be "gifted" with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and fined if we don't, Which purportedly covers at least ten million more people, without adding a single new doctor, but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that didn't read it but exempted themselves from it, and signed by a President, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, for which we'll be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect, by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's broke!!!!!
