Cawdor118 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) I had a hankering to try a F3 incase I wanted to spend an obscenely large figure on a new game gun. I am gutted to report it felt extremely short in the stock and I'm only a wee guy. Anyone else had any experience of this? My current game gun is a silver pigeon.

E.w. Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I’m interested in your findings, could you please elaborate on you finding and tell us what your lop is on your own gun and anything else that met with your approval or not , thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I had an F3 - had two different stocks, which were both normal length. Are you sure stock was original? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlesP Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 The "off the shelf" length of pull on an F3 is quite long, I share the surprise of the posters above that you have experienced one that's too short. I'm, six foot, have long arms and a long neck, and I'm toying with the idea of a thinner butt pad to compensate for thicker winter clothing. Apart from multiple layers of thermal stuff mine fits me near as admmit perfectly. I have no idea where in the country you may be, but if you're anywhere near Dorset a visit to Ian Mulliner is highly recommended. He not only knows these guns inside out (he's the UK warranty and repair man) but he shoots one too, with great effect. He can tell you all about the options with Blaser stocks. As a general rule it's vital that one should try several examples of a gun that interests you - Gordon R may well be right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
