Thanks for the reply..I know the difference..I guess I never worded it right. Would I lose much value if I used a long tang trigger guard on a new straight grip buttstock and keep the original guard for safe keeping, or should I just have the new stock made into a pistol grip as it would have been originally and then use the original PG trigger guard..

Thats kinda what I was thinking J.B. Books....I think I would rather have the straight grip...and get the original tang straightened out and some length added to the end to look something like the original straight grips do..

Then go confidently in that direction, it can be done. Somewhere along the way I saw a p/g trigger guard that had been lengthened and it looked factory. Somebody around here knows who can do it and hopefully they will come along soon with that info.

Well, The person that will be doing the wood and metal work on my gun is also a member here and also in Newfoundland, Chris Dawe. He has someone who does welding for him from time to time from what I understand, will probably check into that and throw it past him when we get to working on the gun.
Thanks again. |

I would be more concerned about what I wanted if I was restocking the gun rather than what would increase or decrease the value. If I was in your situation I would be leaning towards a straight grip built to my dimensions for shooting. However you run the risk the original trigger guard will some day become separated from the gun and never reunited. I might look to see if someone could weld an extension on the original trigger guard, straighten it out and use that, but that's just me.

Good luck with it William, project guns can become money pits if you are not careful but they don't have to be. The point is to have fun with what you have and want what you have.

Bachelder in Grand Rapids Michigan can turn a pistol grip tang into a long straight grip tang. Nice people to work with as well.

Just buy the Galazan guard. For the money, you can't go wrong.
And put whatever grip on it that you like best if you are going to have it done. Some people will only buy straight grip guns and visa versa. So you make make your gun more valuable to the right person.
