The price that he quoted you is very reasonalbe for making a stock. As Dave said there is a good chance that your stock can be saved and for a lot less money. Stock Fixers are excellent and I have a guy here in MI that is also very good.. I would look into repairing the original stock first, most smith's do not know how to do this so that is probably the information you are getting, because he doesn't know how. I have seen stocks in five or six pieces put back together and you can not see the fix.

I actually started this process by sending my stock to Mr. Fulton, he did say he was busy and it was my oversite not to ask just how busy is busy until after I had sent the stock off to WY. Well Mr. Fulton is VERY busy, like an 11 month waiting list and since this is going to be my only shotgun I couldn't wait past hunting season. Dave Wolf is very skilled and a true perfectionist I just don't know that I am ready to invest another $2750 in a gun I already have $2000 in, so I have been looking at every option. One I am considering is bidding on a Turkish Walnut stock from huntersbid.com and then having it machine inlet using my broken stock as a model and then giving that to Mr. Wolf to fit and finish---opinions, thoughts, recommendations for a source to machine inlet or advise.

You can do that but it is very expensive and it is going to take min. of six month and probably a year. So the timing is going to be about the same. There is a man in Michigan that could do the repair work, quite a few members have used him and is turn around time is six weeks to two months. His name is Ehgarb and his phone is 248-446-9927 might not hurt to give him a call
