| Look at Richards Microfit gunstocks out of the Republik of Kalifornia. They have a website, as well as selling seconds. I have two of their stocks, the wood is as advertised. They may take a while to get your order to you, but in my experience, the majority of stock suppliers are slow. Great American Gunstocks has good wood, but they are slow, too. I've had no problems, bought two stocks from them, but a friend of mine did with trying to return a stock that was cut slightly out of specs. He still has it. TAP |

| I am considering restocking a Win. Model 70 with the nicest looking unfinished walnut stock I can get for about $200-$250. It should be inletted, but I will shape, sand and finish it myself. I suppose I would have to enlarge the barrel channel myself, as well. What stock company would you recommend for this? |

That is the one. He has great wood and knows what he is doing. He is a behind the scenes supplier for some famous high grade manufacures. He bought out Pachmeyer and got some awesome pieces of wood there. Basically he has a warehouse, stacked th the rafters, full of high grade gunstocks and blanks. Call first, then go see. You will be amazed. Can't recomend him enough.
Avoid the SO CAL guy mentioned. He sells poor quality goods. His people don't know what they are doing. He will just make you mad and waste your time. |
