Howdy Guys, I have a Ruger #1V stainless with a Laminate stock. I just cant seem to make myself like the looks of the Laminate. Where can I find a nice set of walnut ect for the Ruger? I would be open to tradin my lams for a nice set of woods that will fit my #1V

Thanks
Bill

By the prices I have seen for #1 wood you will have to really dislike the laminate stock

I have to agree.That gray laminated stock sure is ugly. A natural laminated light and dark, like maple walnut would make it more pleasing if they have to have a laminated stock.

I would like to have a 204 #1 but that ugly stock is not for me.

This outfit makes Ruger No. 1 stocks. http://www.treebonecarving.com/id18.html

I had George at Treebone Carving make me a stock set. Very nice work, but quality isn't cheap.

To have the pistol grip stick out below the bottom of the stock is a very poor design and looks like an add on. If a longer grip is needed then the radius of the grip needs to be bigger a 3.5" distance from the ctr of the trigger to the tip of the grip is usually more than enough for most hands. See my design.

Please, no more talk of those other abominations!!
