    So.... if one had a stock these could be built from different rifles? Not that I am going to do it, I wonder if Dr Beeman just went through the Webley catalogue and chose one of this, one of that and came up with the wonderful little C1?

    Mally, I would definitely be interested in a stock and making up some sort of C1. I hope whoever has them may read this...?
