samboy Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Hi gang. I fancy one of these but am a bit concerned about the dents a stock can pick up on the clay grounds. So has anybody got one and can offer any advice . Have been looking at reviews on you tube and has been said any dents could be awkward to remove. Thanks all.

Scully Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 I’m not really sure why any dents should be harder to remove than a conventional stock...it’s still wood. A mate has the Winchester version, it is a fabulous gun to shoot and the laminate stock is as dense as a dense thing can be. I would think it would take a lot to dent it to be honest.

The Mighty Prawn Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 I absolutely loved it when they had trial day at south Worcester - they did warn the laminate is almost impossible to adjust if you want more or less cast for example but on the whole I thought it was ace. not sure if it’s marketing nonsense but was told a few of the other firms are developing laminate for entry level guns as cheap and bomb proof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 If your gun has an adjustable comb ( which mates does ) then you can add as much or as less cast as you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Hard to match colour of the grey laminate and the grain if a repair is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Not my cup of tea think it looks cheap (which it clearly isn't). 😒 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
