I have no experience with stock duplicating machines but see some people advertising that service. Is that an option with fore ends? It might sound silly but it might be easier to get a bolt of coachwood shipped from Australia than a complete fore end. has anyone on this forum had any experience with stock duplicating?
You may want to research that plan before comitting to it. There are some pretty restrictive export/ import restrictions for wood products. Perhaps some of our friends down under could comment on this issue.
