Author Topic: Anyone using a straight grip laminated stock? (Read 543 times)

I need to get a straight grip laminated cinnamon stock from NEF to use with my Ultra receiver and a 12ga shotgun barrel combo. Does anyone out there have one? Do you like it? Got any pictures that you want to share?

I've never seen or used one, so I was looking for any feedback and any pics that might be available.

Any other recommendations besides the NEF stock? I've looked at the gunstocks website and they don't have a straight grip stock available.

Thanks

I've got one on a Topper Deluxe that sadly has not been used since I got it on there. It looks a lot like the old MWTF models just with a 28" barrel. I like the way it feels and I took it goose hunting last week and didn't see a bird. I don't have a pic to post.

Someone here had posted a picture of 3 Handi's all with laminated stocks, they were his and his sons and I think one was pictured with a straight camo stock, does anyone recall where that picture might be posted to help out Mamba Driver??....<><.... :grin:

Thanks Markus. I just can't picture what they look like. What is the MWTF you mention?

Thanks turkeyhunter and MSP. I really enjoy looking at all the pictures. The straight stocks on the 3 shotguns look terrific!! I'm going to order up the cinnamon laminate straight stock from NEF.

Oops,... just thought of something,...do I need a new forend as well, to fit the barrel diameter of the 12ga.? There's no way the Ultra forend will work. The Ultra was originally an Ultra Hunter .270. I may have to order a new forend and fit it to the shotgun barrel???

If your Ultra forearm is a cinnamon color it should work fine, the barrel diameter should be OK....but if you have the extra $ then get the extra forearm, they will match the color as a set when they send it out. There could always be a bit of a difference, there should not be but there could be....Also, its always nice to have a another stock "set"....<><....

P.S. just a hint, when you order them ask them if they have any checkered sets available (if of course you want them), they sometimes have one or the other, or both available, ask for everything, you might get part of what you ask for!!!! :-D

I think NEF makes a run of limited edition Pardners every year. They have the straight laminate stock with a nice recoil pad and a gold "Limited Edition" medallion in the stock. My son and I have one in .410, 20 gauge, and 12 gauge.
