So I need someone to dupe me a replacement, more than likely a laminated blank will be used, nothing fancy, just a decent replacement, no checkering needed. Any recommendations?

They do fancy walnut stocks but also offer a duplicating service. Might be pretty easy to glue up your own blank? “Life is life and fun is fun, but it's all so quiet when the goldfish die.”

If there is channel under the barrel you can lay part of a carbon filament arrow in the and fill around it with Brownells Accruglass jell.I have mixed the straight Accuglass with poly beads and filled that channel .I think the arrow gives a stiffer foreend though If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles

Go slow, by putting it in as far as you can and let it expand a little before adding more. You can cause bulges, but if you go slow it will be all right. I do all of my tupperwear stocks that way. miles Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.
