I don't have any pictures of any of them, but a local hereabouts named Curly Lewis reveled in restocking guns in Birdseye maple about 30-40 years ago. His trademark stock affectations were dart-shaped Monte Carlo cheekpieces with the sharp tine at the nose of the comb and the wide "paddle" end just forward of the buttplate. He put stocks that were nearly identical geometrically on both trap and skeet guns, mostly Model 12s, Remington 870s and 1100s, and the occasionally the very unlucky Browning Superposed. One of the senior skeet weasels at our long-gone local club had Curly restock a set of Remington 1100s in all 4 gauges for him. They were scary guns and hard to look at. Mercifully, they were stolen a few years later from the owner's "upper brackets" address in DC and never recovered.
