S'G stock needed help

**frankderrico** · 11-10-2011 01:16 PM

Hello everyone, this beautiful highwood S'G' came into the "Stock Sickbay" a couple of weeks ago.
Someone for some reason cobbled up the barrel channel.

My customer wanted it to look good with a rifle in it.
I used a doner to come up with the patch. It took a little fitting but now it's ready to go back into service.....Frank

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Great, there he goes getting his ego feed... Just because he can perform miracles when repairing carbine stocks does NOT mean that we have to fall down and worship him - at least not more than once a week

Thanks Ed, and thank's to everyone.
It's not an ego trip for me. It's more of a therapy.
I have been fixing stocks for over 40 years.
After the loss of my son Jake, who was an M249/M60 gunner, my focus has been on "G.I." stocks.
It helps.....Frank

Frank, I'm terribly sorry to hear about that. My heart goes out to you and your family. A son or daughter should never go before their parents.
