Here’s what I got, I have a SS synthetic tc thunderhawk. Long story short the stock is garbage. 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? Thanks

If you find a local guy to dupe the stock, I'd be interested to hear about him.

Over in Yak is Dressels. They do fancy walnut stocks but also offer a duplicating service. Might be pretty easy to glue up your own blank?

Copy. Ya we’ve got Osborne and sons out Onalaska, had him do some stock work on my blr 358, wasn’t impressed....

I’ll call Boyd’s tomorrow

Sometimes you can fill those plastic stock butts with insulation foam in a can you buy at Home Depot.That dampens out that hollow sound quite a bit.

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 you use that foam in the stock, get the low expanding kind. 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

The front action screw broke out, the material is real brittle, spider webbed a pretty fair amount of material. Just gonna gun a new stock

Try TC or Numrich, maybe a take off could be found if Boyds doesn't make them..
