Stock Job
 
10 Attachment(s)
I had one of our own make me a stock for my 16ga lifter. The original stock LOP was only 13 inches so I had Brain Dudley make me a stock. Now the LOP is 14 inches and a DAH of 2-1/2. And while I was at it I got the butt checkered. I think the guy did a damn good job!! Now I can't wait till Sat. to take her out.

Very well done! I had Brian refinish the stock on my VH and I couldn't be happier!

That is very nice, I would have done a couple things different, it's your gun. Brian, that is a job to be proud of. Dave

David, what would you have done differently? This is the first one I had done and maybe I can improve on the next one.

I would have used fancier wood on the restock, because all parkers deserve it. IMHO. And I shoot my guns alot and find checkered butts are to slippery to keep on shoulder for the secound shot. If that is your first restock, you have one to be proud of Angel. Dave

You're right about the fancier wood and I guess I'll find out about the checkered butt on Sat. What about the plain metal butt plate, won't that be just as slippery??

I personally like the look of the old style recoil pads like Tony sells, or a red head pad with the duck. Dave

Angel, is that a 1 or 2 frame? Looks like fun to me. Dave
