bennyuk Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Went shooting today on one of my permissions and got my first hare! Unfortunatley it wasnt a clean kill and I didnt have anything with me to finish it off with, I made a stupid decision and decided to give it a "tap" on the head with the stock of the Baikal. Guess what, I broke it, quite badly and beyond repair. Now before you all start on me I know I was a ****. I am a newbie and have learnt a valuable lesson (and yes, I did remove the cartridges) and now dont have a shotgun anymore. I know its only a cheap gun but I liked it. (it is a double trigger non ejector) Does anyone have a stock for one they want to sell, or another Baikal for "spares or repairs"? Does anyone know where I can get hold of a stock? On the bright side at least I will have a good meal tomorrow night! Hope someone can help Cheers Ben (the ****!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markio Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Tough break. How much was the gun (rhetorical), maybe it's worth checking out the likes of gun trader for a complete replacement rather than messing about with parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul@Ribchester Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 wingnut, I was close by and saw the gun, no repairing this stock. Picture this.... Me and Ben walking through a wood, I hear 2 shots go off then what I presumed Ben breaking a branch to finish off what ever he had shot..... I start making towards the noise and hear "Paul, Paul got my 1st kill but it has killed my gun"! I rush over wondering what has happened and emerge from the trees to see Ben holding a big hare in one hand and whats left of his gun in the other. I said you didn't and he said yep I did!!!!!! The stock is well beyond repair as a third of it is missing, if someone has one lying around it would be a great help as Ben was going to keep this gun and pass it down to his son. It was not worth a lot of money but as I have done you always want to keep your 1st gun.. At least it will force him to buy the semi auto he has been after for a while. Paul.

Gordon R Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Many years ago when these were imported by Budget Guns and Tackle, they sold them with Italian upgraded wood. Something must have happened to all the old woodwork. I would try e-mailing a few big gun shops - Chris Potter, the Sportsman, Minsterley ranges (bought a Browning XS stock from them for peanuts) etc. Good luck.

bennyuk Posted April 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Cheers for all the help people. Hopefully will get something sorted soon. Paul is right though, will now force me to buy the semi I've been after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy. Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Dispatch it with your hands. I wouldn't think highly of someone trying to dispatch an animal using their shotgun (not by means of shooting it). Maybe a true lesson has been learnt here.
