i have a 54 30-06 that was kind of "modernized". i had a timnet trigger installed but you have to press sear down from under the bolt to get the bolt out. i have a scope mounted on the rifle but with the old stock you all but have to lift your head off the stock to use the scope. does anyone sell after market stocks for a 54? i have searched with no luck. does anyone know of a better method to the trigger and bolt release?

It sounds as though your M/54 has the early stock with the schnable forend, they had a lot of drop as they were designed for iron sight use. Later M/54's had a stock designed by Townsend Whelen, you can spot one by its lack of schnable forend. These stocks have less drop and may be an answer to your scope ues issues.

Call McMillan. I have a 1936 M54. Last time I talked to them they were a special order item.
