Stock Identification
« on: September 11, 2006, 11:10:51 AM »
I found this picture on a thread about truck guns and liked the stock so I saved it.  Now I can't find the original post to see what kind it is.

I can see that the pic is not coming up.  Its a cut down 12 Ga with swivals added but has a straight wooden stock with recoil pad and its laying in the grass with the photographers shoe showing.

Was it a colored Laminated stock, or a regular "hardwood" straight griped stock?
I believe NEF/H&R still sales the camo colored straight grip stocks straight from the factory. You would have to call their CS and see if your interested. The number and email address is located in the FAQS page of the NEF/H&R Centerfire forum.
Hope this helps a little. If you can get a working pic, I am positive we can identify it. Unless it's a custom made, then ... maybe at best.

It was a regular hardwood straight (no pistol grip) and I think he said the stock was from a huntsman.

I have seen the regular hardwood straightgrip stocks like you mentioned, though I am not real sure what year/s they were offered.
The Buffalo Classic models come with a nice Walnut straight grip stocks, with extended checkering....

No checkering at all.  A plain wooden stock with reddish recoil pad which could have been added.

I have the pic saved but can't seem to attach it.  Must have been deleted from photobucket before I started this thread.  Could probably attach it to an email though.

If your looking to purchase one, then go ahead an post an AD in the NEF/H&R Classifieds for a Straight Grip hardwood stock. Your chances should be pretty good. Also keep an eye out on eBay, they pop up from time to time.
Good hunting, hope you find what your looking for.

Didn't they put a straight gripped hardwood stock on the old Shikari models?
