Nope, different idea using a more natural form for the hand

A little more shaping taken place. What I'm going to do on the other (thumb) side is follow the natural rested form of the thumb. This should take any tension out of the hand as it will be in a naturally rested position.
It's similar to what the original steyr grip is, just a difference in angles. The fun part will be not only making it feel right, but making it blend into the rest of the grip, as it's a different enough angle to throw out steyrs whole design. All will be revealed in time......  Edited by (pink)MIST - 09 Jun 2014 at 10:26pm |

Coming along nicely, bit more "organic" than standard steyr pieces, but wood shouldn't look mechanical :)
Started on the hamster as well

This will be interesting to see how the new grip works out. I can remember what I was taught at school with the woodwork class... the "three one one" grip. To this day i still use that grip as it is the most steady grip for holding any tools. If you apply this grip to a gun stock what do you get?

Too much pressure with the three fingers, generally.
For the rear hand it shouldn't have any other job than pulling the trigger in the seated position, although for kneelers/standers this changes.

I'm working on the unnecessary muscle tension, if your hand is in a naturally rested position it should be more comfortable, and should help promote a natural shooting position.
Could work , or I could be full of sh*t :) one way to find out :) |

Bit if a quick shaping on the cheekrest tonight, and now you can see them laid out as they'd go on a steyr :)
Still more to do on them but shows really how easy and quickly they can be made. Watch this space, going to experiment with colour :)
