What is the wait time on one of those stocks?
Sorry just now saw this.
About 2 months +/- for the drop in. These have no bedding and a free floated barrel channel tolerances are so close it is not needed according to Mr. Forbes. Bedding won't hurt especially if I have it in and out of the stock on a regular basis. If it doesn't shoot I can always send it back for the full bedding job.
Comes in basic black only. A paint upgrade starts at around $45.00. No idea of the wait time to have it shop bedded, but I would allow at least another month. I'll do the trigger and firing pin change out. Melvin wanted $250 for the three function trigger installed. For that price I might as well go with a Jewell.
Just was reminded by the other CLF thread. If you have the rifle shop bedded I think it includes balancing the stock to your barrel. I think the pad is a glue on so this can't be done afterward very easily.
