gixer1 Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Yup, bought a laminate stock from them and had to have it sent via leeinva - was very good quality and they are very helpful on fitting/bedding. Anything of a certain value that can't send though outside the USA (think its anything under £100 Regards, Gixer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicykillgaz Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Just ordered one last week, it is currently with HM Customs, it cost $160 to buy and ship + whatever customs will charge. £24.32 I think I paid as I had a moan on here about it, well worth it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aister Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 has any of you noticed any improvement in accuracy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 has any of you noticed any improvement in accuracy? Not as such, I find it more comfortable/natural shooting with a thumbhole so I guess that helps my shooting. My last stock was already floated but I guess if yours isn't then you may notice a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
station Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 £24.32 I think I paid as I had a moan on here about it, well worth it though I think you pay VAT only on anything under $300 so that will be your £24.32. Anything over $300 then you also pay import tax as well - I think you can claim some or all of the import tax back. I just bought some Rivers West Black Ranger pants from the US and got stung just with 20% VAT. (worth it as you cannot get Rivers West in Black in the UK or Europe (that's the bit across the Channel) If anyone knows the precise details then please add to this Thread.

Rushjob Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) Got a left handed featherweight thumbhole laminate on my Parker Hale .243. Excellent stock at a fantastic price. I just wish they did one for my Savage 22-250 but at the mo they don't do a left bolt version. As soon as they do, I'm ordering one. Light, comfortable, very quick to shoulder & it looks great too.
