Well, did you cut it? If you did, I hope it turned out ok.

Up until two weeks ago, I had an old 1895 in 30/40 with a barrel that had been cut off to 24 inches. The stock had been cut off to about a 12.25 inch length of pull, with some kind of hard rubber home made butt plate and then the wood was shattered at the grip. Years ago I replaced the butt stock. Turned out to be a good rifle, but it was no where near original. If I hadn't sold it, I'd have offered to see if we could swap barrels.
