What type of shotgun are you looking to cut down? (Fingers crossed it’s a BSS and I can swap you a cut down stock for your full length stock )

Small world. Tucker was my mentor. I started learning to build gunleather from him in 1995 when I was 15 years old. He was a great guy, with great stories. He was a jockey when he was young, then a bronc rider. He was drafted in Vietnam and did 2 tours as an Army Ranger doing downed pilot extraction behind enemy lines. When he came back he became a police and had tons of stories about working SWAT and undercover narcotics. And sometime after going full time with his leather business (a trade that he learned from Don King in Sheridan, Wyoming) he started teaching a scrawny teenager about leather and work ethic. We stayed in touch over the years until he passed suddenly a couple of months ago. They dont make them like they used to.

Ruger Old Army hammer and screw. Located near Austin, TX. $125 shipped in the US.

Good to know… I have both a gold trigger and a silver trigger that I need stocks for, though. BTT

Looking to trade one or both of these cut down BSS stocks with Kick-eez recoil pads for full length stocks with butt plates. One has a length of pull of 12.5” and the other is 11.5”. I’d prefer to trade, but I’d also be interested in buying a couple of stocks if anybody has some they’d sell.

BEWARE: I was contacted by Satrk980 an hour after they joined and offered the hard-to-find revolver I’m looking for. He gave me an email to use and then emailed me pictures that were lifted off an auction site. Granted, it was a rather weak attempt at a scam, but since BP pistols can be shipped person to person, I could see how somebody could fall for it, wire the money, and wait for a gun that never arrives. Ho do we get this joker removed?
