CS500/HW99 update

[bigtoe01]

I'd love to have the kit & a workshop to produce simple no frills custom shaped inexpencive aftermaket stocks..., I love working with wood., it can't be that hard surely.

a mill and a copy machine plus tooling and you are away...2k outlay would do it....for mass production

Some just manage with a router and home made jigs....200quid outlay maybe a tad more...for one offs

I'd love to have a crack at making stocks too Rhys

Here's videos of how to do it: http://www.guntuning.com/content.php...&lang=eng&p=p1

i know where i may be getting my stock...that looks way nicer than a cs500

FWIW if you could get a cs500 hw95 stock inletted but no fore end holes or cocking slot it would be quite simple to make the 99 fit, from the rear its the same, you would only need to inlet for the stock mounting saddle and a little for where the barrel comes to rest once cocked, obviously you would need to shorten the fore end.

Like most things making a stock is just a case of having the confidence to attack a stock blank worth £40-50 with power/hand tools...... then you can work on fit as design will all depend on what wood you have left over

The peeps at Guntuning.com seem to be switched on. Someone needs to to send an action and an order to them.

I'd definatly be able to make it look better that's for sure.....

Plenty of stocks on here for ideas.., I'm sure it can't be that difficult...

Just practice on cheap wood to start., there is an exotic wood merchant near me that sells alsorts of different hardwood for as little as £3.50 a slab!! The secret is to do more hand finishing on the first ones so you get it right.......,

I really don't know what the fuss is about.., I'm going to do some digging.....

I'll just have to take your word on that one Rhys

It's really not that difficult to make your own stocks, I make mine in my garden with a router I swapped for a silencer and the shaping is done with b&d power file, obviously different stocks require different router bits and if you can source the right bits then it makes life a lot easier.
I did a hw35 stock a couple of weekends ago for a chap on here and although a bit fiddly it can be done with a bit of time and patience.
I'm a bit busy with other stock projects at the moment but I'm willing to do some in the future if needed.

And I think they'll "do" any design you like Tone

Tinbum and me were gonna try them out a while ago.

Did you see what they do with a Diana 48 / Mauser K98 http://www.guntuning.com/content.php...id=78&lang=eng

Rhys, your more than welcome to come and see me in swindon to see how I make my stocks it may give you an idea how it can be done with just a few power tools.
