Who makes custom walnut stocks for the standard Handi-Rifle??
« on: November 06, 2008, 10:57:33 AM »
Dear Guys,

   Who makes custom walnut stocks for these rifles.  There must be SOMEBODY? 

   (Those plain, birch, very proud, factory stocks drive me crazy!)

Thanks,
Mannyrock

Gun Stocks Inc. makes walnut stocks. You can get them in a few different configurations. They are not custom however. They can be bought unfinished and the worked on. Fred did that with his, and I think they are very good looking. He had his checked and did some shaping on them.

H&R offers 2 styles of walnut stocks too, as well as several laminated stocks, here's 7 pages of Handi pics from the FAQs.  ;)

I've been thinking about the straight walnut for my BC, the butt is flat instead of curved.  The crescent plate still kicks the snot out of me with heavy loads.
