Stock Restoration
Hi Phil, I have made and fitted two complete new fore ends to my mk2. I found that the secret [other than getting the tapers right on the new fore ends ] is to pin the joints with panel pins to allow pressure to be applied to the joint.The pins can then be cut off and sanded smooth. There is little to worry about cocking breaking the joint, all the pressure is taken on the action. Dont forget to leave the fore ends oversize so that you can remove wood to fit to the action. The repair I have made has lasted about 10 years with light usage. Best of luck with the project.Regards, Daveh
PS Similar Rear sights may be available on "Track of the Wolf" site but Ihave no experience of them. Others may have used them and I am sure will comment.D
