You are correct, they would fill the checkering if requested.


Too close for irons, switching to scope...

They were willing; and then they weren’t. The last time I had them do some for me prior to the change in ownership, it was an upcharge of $100.

Was Stuart able to figure out a way to get these across easily, or was there a ton of paperwork?

I know how you feel. They built a warranty replacement stock for me and I asked Lynn if I could pick it up unpainted, bed the action and bottom metal and then bring iit back for paint, no problem... That was right before the sale. They did a great job with the paint, but charged $35 to tape off the bedding when I brought it back under new ownership.

There was paperwork, I don't know how much. My buddy already had the forms started and I had him add my stock on to his.

what is the wait time and cost of those stocks ?

Hal

I latched onto the order my buddy was doing. I sent the mone on Sept 20th, and the stocks arrived Dec 15th. My stock was $375, it'll probably be north of $700 finished.

Are people here really spending good money to replace the current FN/BACO OEM B&C stock?

I have replaced a few of them.. Grips way too chubby and short for my big paws. My other good buddy, doesn’t mind them a bit. It’s worked out well for both of us.

It was either that or sell the rifle. I hated the B&C stock that much.
