Extra-long fore end on Laminated Thumbhole set
« on: February 09, 2013, 10:43:01 AM »
Saw this on Gunbroker and was curious to see if anyone here knows about the xtra long forend. I emailed the seller and asked him if it was a Muzzleloader set, but he never responded...interesting..the forend looks almost as long as the butt stock

I bought the same set from that company over the summer, although I didn't know it was not a standard forearm until I opened the box.  Tim's correct (as usual) it's for the big slug barrel or a 10 gauge.  It's about 11 inches long and the channel is about 1.19" wide.  Egads, the price has doubled. :o

Do they have 'em in checkered walnut or plain pallet wood?  That might be a nice addition to a project. . .

Gun stocks inc has a target varmit forend also.  Little more wood work to do though.  I got one last week & will post up on how it turns out.  It is at least 3" longer than the forend on my ultra hunter
