Here's the Erfurt replacement stock that was way under-checkered by my guy in Mississippi and the final version after being worked by Craig Liphart. The wood will never be a favorite since it's a prime example of how a nice looking blank can turn into what I would call gender confusion. Even though the wood grain has no direction and a shallow embedded branch in the grip, I sort of like the Rhino head blotch on the right of the buttstock. I also added a picture of the stock it replaced. All opinions appreciated as usual. CB Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can. | ||

I don't think I've ever seen a cheek piece that covered so much of the butt. I kinda like it, and I guess you can call me a lover of transgender wood, cuz' I like that too. What are you gonna do with the old stock? Is it a small ring KAR action rifle? Matt FISH!!

Matt, This stock was built as a match to my 1936 Mexican. Hence the same style cheek piece. It certainly is low on the butt but I kinda like it. That is a Kar98 small ring action with a light profile barrel. As for the first stock, I have no clue what it may be worth. I got like $700 in it not including my time for shaping and bedding. This one was never carried in the field so it is still minty. Might listen to an offer. Hadn't given it much thought. Nice one Boxhead. The Mexican. Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can. | |||

That Mex is lovely! Matt FISH!!

Thanks. It's still a virgin as in never hunted. I should hunt with it one of these years. Still haven't added a swivel mount to the butt of the stock. Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can. | |||
