Q:

New dress for my colibri.


I’ve had my colibri for a few months now and to me Other than the stock I just can’t fault this gun. Yeah it’s functional but been thinking it really does deserve a new dress
Been thinking of different ways to go about it.
This is what I came up with.

Below is just a cardboard cut out laying on top of the colibri.
This was the shape I was hoping to get away with.

First coat of true oil

All finished.

very happy with the results.

All the best
Ash

impressive skill mate. well done

That takes a lot of hours to complete, that’s why I don’t want to carve another Colibri stock.

job well done !!!!

That is awesome! Your cardboard template had finger grooves? For those of us who don’t possess the skill, equipment, time and/or patience…there will soon be a stock option available.

Haha I thought Larry was saying Ash was a stocker at Purdey & Sons London… :rofl: That would be like a Ferrari mechanic working on a Yugo

Hey Ash, your Colibri seems to be one of the “short serial number guns”. Does it take the Vulcan/marauder type mags or the conventional Colibri mags?

Hi.
Yes that’s right.
They mags are dedicated to the colibri .

Ash I’m a little Jelly of your skill at making stocks. That bird looks great. How’s that Hugget work on the Colibri?

To be honest the colibri doesn’t really need a moderator as it pretty quite without it but it does make a difference with it on.
So had an adapted made up 4 it.
Think it doesn’t look out of place. Any bigger it would though.
