Posted By: Rimrock Husky HVA stock? - 10/23/06
Anyone out there have (or know a gunsmith who has) a Husqvarna HVA stock?
My kid broke his, for the second time, yesterday! Two years ago he was hiking down a steep, icy trail. Did the classic whoops thing, smacked his gunstock and broke it at the wrist.
Gorilla glue works wonders, though, and he's shot an elk and several deer & antelope with it since. Yesterday, though, we were getting the horses through some kinda bad deadfall, & he had a minor rodeo. I didn't see it happen, as was fully occupied with my own saddle horse & two packhorses, but when he caught up was in a foul humor indeed, and the gunstock is done for, this time.
So, I just called Gentry's, but I know they try to shut things down this time of year (don't blame them a bit!), & the Mrs. wasn't sure if they had a take-off. Someone does, though...?

Looking for a 1900 handle are you?

Hanson & Hanson in CT had some Husqvarna stocks listed on GB or AA awhile back. Check with sbhva, since he is the resident Husqvarna expert. sbhva@aol.com (I think).

I have one that is chipped behind the tang as is common, but, it is very difficult to ship this into the States as I would gladly do if the @#$%@@^&* governments were not so Bleeeping Bleeped!

The alloy and the steel bottom metal stocks are quite different, be sure you get the right type for your rifle. I would just get a Brown Precision synthetic as I have on one of my HVAs, a Kevlar unit that I am very pleased with after about 13 years of use.

Thanks, & yes, a synthetic is likely in the works, unless I can turn an original up on short notice.

If you send the parts, lots of folks will make a dupiclate.

Boyd's will, for example. Love them Huskys!
