Admittedly what you started with and what you ended up with is a real transformation. Good work and I like the stock design.

I'm still around. E-mail me if you have any questions, Welding for the Barnett Shale pays the bills, but shooting and helping others shoot at the best of their ability interests me more.
Thanks again for the compliments! |

would it be possible to do this but in a bull-pup configuration? for the 10/22 that is.

I'm not going to make one anytime soon, but once you have a good inlet for your action and barrel, your shoulder, hand, and cheek position is only limited by your wants, needs, and imagination. |

Hey y'all my name is Zack and I am brand new here, I just read this thread from start to finish. I'm not new to guns but I'm also not 100% familiar with everything there is out there about them. I mostly did the shooting and reloading, nothing more. haha My Dad did the modding... But anyways, I want to learn and make my own gun and I was just wondering where you guys got your barrels and assemblies form? And what I should be looking for, is cheap really bad, is expensive really that good, Im assuming it is... Where can I get the parts? How long did this take you to complete? Also I was looking for some good cheap middle of the road parts can you give me some recommendations?
Thanks In advance, -Zack |

Wow! Again, I'm grateful all of the positive feedback. My shooting sports activities have been on the back burner for the last several months, so I haven't been here at arfcom in a while. BLCOUCH has brought my attention back to this project and I have to say that if 10 of you guys want one of these at original terms I quoted above, I'd be happy to do it, but I will need money up front. PM me and I'll give you all my personal info. This is what you would get minus the cheekpiece mounting hole. For 10/22's with bull barrell only. You'd also have to bed your action yourself. http://s269.photobucket.com/albums/jj43/cwa11is_2008/texture1.jpg Chris Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By cwa11is:

I would be happy to provide a product that other shooters would appreciate, but it would cost me quite a bit to get set up. I crunched some numbers I would need $125 per stock if I had 10 or more to do. That would be only for 10/22 actions with bull barrels and include only the wood and fiberglass texture and hardware holes---not the cheek piece or buttplate. I would seal it with primer and let you paint it yourself. Let me tell you, that price does not include any cash profit for me. I would just be working for the tools. I know that is steep and I don't expect any orders, but thanks again for all your compliments. Start a list of people. I would gladly give you $125 to help get the tools. After the first set of ten, then you would have all of the tools and start making some money for yourself. Most businesses lose money at the beginning while they are acquring equipment. Sometimes it takes years to make a profit, but you will break even with the first round of stocks. PM me if this sounds good. I honestly think that if you charged $125 per stock you could sell a lot of them. Then maybe add the buttplate and cheekpiece as options for additional $$? Wow!
