Home Forums Lever Action Central Big Bore Levers Model 71 wood

Hey fellers:

I recently found a beautiful model 71 deluxe grade that is a gem except some long dead wingnut cut the stock for a pad.

Anyone have or know where I can get a new stock?

Want to take the old gal on a moose hunt this fall!

and yes... its a .348

Thanks

i would try Midwest Gun Works in Pevley, MO. they bought all the Browning 71 reproduction parts 10+ years ago. the last time i was there they had both grades of wood and it might just fit a Winchester.

Just a note: some M71s were fitted with recoil pads at the factory. If I remember correctly, Pachmayers were used. There is one illustrated in one of Madis's books.

You might just want to wait changing the wood until after you get back from that hunt. That recoil pad might come in mighty handy. LOL
