Nice. Love that lever action stock and the top one in that pic.
Interesting mods to 13xx. How much have they improved it comfort for shooting? Whats kauri like for a stock? Weight and felt recoil. Beautiful wood. |

Hi. The cheek-piece and butt-extension give a better heads-up sight picture with a scope. I haven't seen any other stock mods done this way but it seems to work great. Kauri is light and strong but I would only use it for non-springers. It's easier to work than hardwoods. The 2250 has a rimu stock but I had to stain it in mahogany to hide the mess I made of it with boiled linseed!! The second one down is a Umarex NXP APX which is a great little plinker.

Can't say I have either.
I consider your 13xx an ugly stock as it is, wood looks out of place but does look very functional. However if the whole thing was wood (or maybe painted like wood or a thin veneer to the plastic part) it would be a whole differnt story. Over all I like your work on the stocks. Nice work. |

The 1322 has a full kauri set of grips and detachable stock as well but I'm Making a new stock so it's set up with the Crosman one for a while. Will post some new photos later. My stuff is made to look like it was rushed out of the factory and onto the front line in Stalingrad.

The top stock doesn't fit that bill.
Looks more like a custom after market stock. The rest do fit that bill. Strangely enough I think the color plays a big part in that as well. Ever tried adding a bit patena to them. The aged look would probly go really well with the way you want them to look. Looking forward to seeing the 1322 in full wood. 👍 |

Nice work! You've got a definite style there. It's a very satisfying thing to make your own stock and get to use it.
