Stock bending

[Buddy Marson]

Josh,
I just had Dennis Smith (The Stock Doctor) bend a draw bolt stock on an RBL28. I also had Dennis bend a Perazzi DC12 draw bolt stock. Both came out perfect! He is the one I would recommend you contact. His phone number is (541) 483-2182.

All the best,
Buddy

Dan Rositter (SR) has done it and I think he still has the heating/bending jig in his shop. He still uses the Custom Stocks & Steel business name.

If memory serves the stock bending jig referred to by Mike was originally made by the late John Van Patten, respected gunsmith in Milford, PA. When John passed the jig came into the possession of a Parker man familiar to many of us, and he put it “on loan” to Dan Jr. before he went to G&H.

I've only had a couple done, both Fox, but Mike Orlen did them and they were perfect, cheap and quick. Had a couple of old time stocks bent for cast and drop and turned them into lethal frouse and quail guns.
