Ayrshireshooter Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 Live in Scotland/Renfrewshire was going to buy new gun but been thinking this might be both more effective and more fun. i could travel but would want someone who could work with me on fit and advice and ideally build it up over couple of visits etc? know someone who paid a lot and was handed something that didn't fit after one fitting session and 6 month wait...

Stonepark Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 Dalgliesh In Eaglesham would be best place to start asking, possibly Mackinleys on loch Lomond side but more expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you hope to achieve? You could do the necessary work with cardboard and tape to get the fit you require and then look at getting a stock made, but I doubt it would be ready for this season.

Gunman Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) What is the gun ????? Try Lingard at Friokheim if he's still around . Edited August 25, 2022 by Gunman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshireshooter Posted August 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Gun is an invictus 5. It's already had pad altered to fit but still feels off, especially grip. I heard these guys were good but I intend to get nice wood and don't trust the idea I can get what I want remotely https://manuelricardo.pt/one-click-gunstock/ midland gun company meant to be good but but far. graham and Alex don't make stocks.

There was a recent thread of someone who done the trip. Very informative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retromlc Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 my gun came with one of these stocks, it is superb, the grip feels like it was made for me, it might be worth going, I did go to midland gun company but cancelled my order the next day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGGIE Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 If you're prepared to travel James Reynolds ( google The Woodworking Gunsmith) at Thimbleby Shooting Ground is very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
