New toy... Hoping to learn....Who is the maker of this stock?

[Byron]

Not sure of the maker but I'm pretty sure it is outside the rules. Comb is higher than the centerline of the bore and the forearm might be too deep.

It actually looks like a slighly modified Fajen stock, which is legal, the roll over on the cheek piece is below the center line of the bore, and, the fore arm should also be OK, the only question would be the actual pistol grip, which if it is really a Fajen, it is straight, and will qualify only in the Standard class.
Merlin, how many more toys are you going to buy ?????

It was an accident - I swear....!

The gun came in today...... Still don't know what kind of stock it is but it's fiberglass and has been bedded. Stuck a scope on it and (at 40 meters) seems to really shoot very well with Eley Club... The wind is at 30 mph so its hard to say for sure....

[edgehit]

Oh hell, 30 mph in corpus? That's normal conditions. It's like living in a wind tunnel.

[Merlin]

Yes Sir. If I can learn to shoot in this wind I sould have be good to go just about anywhere.....

Merlin,

I lived in Corpus Christi from 1965 to 1985 myself. Started shooting silhouette there in 1978 at CCPRC and did most of my practice at day break. Most of the time by 9AM it was to windy to shoot, heck we had lights and used to set up targets and shoot at night about the only time the winds died down. I ran three Texas State Smallbore matches there in the early 1980's, try and make it to Houston for state if you can.

Good luck to you,

Merlin,

I am thinking that since the stock is glass that it could be a modified McMillan Richard King Silhouette. Here is a picture of the stock, let me know what you think.

[Merlin]

Paul.. That looks like it but mine has no thumb hole.... BIG fat palm swell and the angled area for the offhand finger rests..... I think I really like the stock but wish the comb was at the legal height limit. Seems to be maybe a 1/2 inch lower than the limit....

[Evelio Mc Donald]

Merlin
Look thru the muzzle end, if you can see at least half of the bore,clear of the cheek piece, it should be legal.
I agree with Paul, it does look like a modified Richard King stock made by Mc Millan, Again I am almost positive that the stock is legal for standard class.

I shot a round with it this morning and it is pretty nice for sure. Still not sure if I like it as well - or any better - than the McMillan Anschutz Silhouette stock though....

My comment about the comb is that is is Lower than it could be. I think it could be higher (maybe 3/4") and still not go higher than the centerline of the bore....

I personally seem to be about 50/50 on my ..ahhh....attempts.

No need to prove it. We're aware.
