I have a full stock rifle itch I must scratch at some point. I probably should just buy a factory one but I am considering making one of my pre-64 FWT's into a full stock rifle. of course after loping 2" off the barrel and having a new front sight put on.
from the research I've done on here it appears that the proper way to do a stock is to build a pattern then have that used to have your stock blank of your choice turned and copied like the slave pattern.
It sure would be nice though if I could just get a pre-turned blank or have a stock blank of my choice directly made into a classic style full stock since the rifle I'm using is a factory pre-64 barreled action.
I'm wanting to build a pretty working rifle not a piece of art that is perfect in every way.
I would welcome any input.
Thanks!
