    Latest update.....

    Bit of an unusual approach to attaching a comb to the pup but it works remarkably well , will replace with a new one at some stage
    What isn't obvious is how I managed to keep it in place.
    A small magnet is inlet into underside of comb so even if turned upside down the comb stays put

    Would have been better looking if it was possible. The inlettting for the trigger connecting rods are quite deep and there is only 10-15mm of wood left wheer the rear stock bolt is. Doesn't afect me as I always shoot thum up . I need to address the inletting as it makes the action quite noisy, may add sound deadening to make it quieter.

    Have a different trigger link idea that wold make thumbhole stock possible, will try it out if funds allow.

    I'm the same mate - even with my standard TX stock I shoot thumb up.

    Would a rubber inlay quieten it down?

    All of the above.

    I built an aluminium TX 200, and made a stock from ally channel , it was very noisy , I quietened it down by injecting spray foam, it worked well , wrap the action in cling film to protect it .

    Slight change.....

    As the hand grip was too far away from trigger and only option I could think of was to replace it ..... I thought I might as well have a go at making it a thumbhole

    Pity about the screw and the hand grip is obviously too deep plus it needs a little more sanding and re-oiling amd still need to sort out the hinge.

    All in all it's not too bad
