Let's see some wood!

Ooops, it's a Fox.

XE 20, 2 barrel set

I'm still looking for a nice Parker Repro 20 bore, straight stock, splinter, 28-inch tubes, double triggers. Case and accessories optional. Nothing else please!

Back on page 12 of this thread I posted pics of a NOS Parker Reproduction replacement stock. This stock was to be a replacement for one of my consecutively numbered pair of Sporting Clays Classics -- one I shoot, the other is NIB unfired. A previous owner whacked the SSBP off to install a recoil pad of the gun I use, the pad has bothered me to the bejeezus as I wanted to bring the gun back to its original configuration. However, the color of the wood of this replacement stock turned out not a particularly good match to that gun's forend and that gun's wood was not a good match to its consecutive numbered gun. I tried to find an original Repro forend to match this stock, but to no avail. So I decided to purchase a blank from Cecil Fredi and have a new splinter forend made to compliment the replacement stock. The color and figure of the replacement stock and soon-to-be-made forend should make this consecutively numbered pair of SCCs appear the factory intended them to be a true pair.

Here's are a couple of pics of the new forend blank with that NOS replacement stock.
