I am looking for some pictures of stocks for actions with drop box magazines.

I am shaping a pattern stock and need to know how to make the bottom of the forearm look just ahead of the action.

Action is a Win 70 classic.

2 places - check some of the gun digest photos, and dakota's african series has a good looking drop mag.

Here's one that has the front tang of the box slightly rounded allowing the radius of the forearm to extend closer to the floor plate. It looks good and feels great.



And a side view...

Thanks, Forrest! If I get it to look half as nice as yours I'll be happy!

ElCaballero,

I'm too lazy to put up any photos right now so pm me your email address and I'll send a few your way.
