there only one wee thing with your design mate i,ve drawn a circle were i think u will need to come a wee bit deeper with the wood as the bottle come,s down .
i,ve done alot off grips and stocks for the gunpower range and thats god to be one off the nicest i,ve seen .if u can get it done like that i,ll be pretty impressed . all u would need is a nice bit off burl walnut to make it realy sweet
this was one off my first go,s at it
having read and looked at your post again i compleatly cocked up. sorry fella.
now on to more important things…
is there anyone out there that can make the rear end of a rifle hover like in the picture?
thats a winner. if you can do it can you make it carry the shooter as well? the rabbits will never hear me coming ever again….
like you i am not keen on the one peice setup but you look to be onto a cheaper option over the cover from FX. I hope it works out for you.
I totally get what you guys are saying but bout the one piece but i’m not fond of the one piece (cosmetically). To combat I intend to put the but plate on the bottle and and put some sort of quick release bolt on the added stock piece to keep it all in tite.
tank will be as normal il just blend the bottem piece to the tank.
Totally possible, did it once already… 😉
me too 😛 and riff is right, make the hole thing a one piece stock or it’ll flex like the dickens.
I guess I just had to acutely look at the the pic joe made 😳 at first it looked like it incased the tank
Dont forget to make the trigger guard and forearm part of it.
Bcuz 1 piece is better, but what you designed there is good too.
Biggest problem with this type of design is when you shoulder it, the whole stock becomes a lever on the weakest part of the frame (grip area). Make it all one piece, use both the grip screw and the forearm screw and **drum roll** less flex.
Shooting technique will overcome this however. Most shooters here have figured out the right hold for thier rifle as configured.
I am currently learning to shoot my Condor again… changed back to an AR15 grip arangement. I had to… I got a free part too pretty to ignore 8) 8)

I know you said it was done in MS Paint… that’s why it was even funnier (In my world…)

Only possible bad thing is the thin parts going back, but they should hold just fine…
What is the extender thing that is white at the butt area…?
Nice photoshop work… 😉

➡ Hey Man; Seems real good!
(Alot of you guys on hear are pretty funny 😆 . I get a good dose of good personality)
So back to the hardwear…:
I thought I read a bit of making it “all” outa wood? Dudes got an AWSOME job done from the pic a saw; But he doesn’t have a connecting line from but to bottom of the grip.
Ya, he’s got a NICE piece made, but yours is damn fine as well! Some people will spend the same on, lets say, a car: Even though they first off choose an advertised car lot of certain styles and like to “a” customer. Saying: I, and I know others that like “you” style/look\feeling of that (yours).
Sure, you qky erased the but plate, (duh) looks good. Shows what’s to be shown, right?
Cool man
