Ethan Cord Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Howdy pards, I called up Boyds who has a pretty good selection of gun replacement gun stocks, but they don't duplicate according to the sales lady I spoke to. I need to replace a Marlin shotgun forend and stock. I have the wood that came with the gun but it has been cut or damaged. Can any of you recommend someone who's work you have firsthand knowledge of? Also, do you have any idea of the cost involved? Thanks!

Bitterroot Jake, SASS #9532 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I have a buddy at work who does them and he's pretty good in my estimation (judging from what I have seen), If you go to WWW.Varminthunters.com, look for K-9 Krippler and you can see some of his work. Can get you an e-mail and phone # later if you want. Don't have any idea what he charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketchum Quick, SASS #72923 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I have hear lots of good things about Wenig. http://www.wenig.com/ In fact I was thinking about getting a stock set from them too. Ketchum Quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semi Conductor, SASS #51020 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Unless you're looking for fancy wood - you might try Gunparts corp. Formerly Numrich Arms in West Hurley NY. They might just have factory take-off stocks for your model and they would be a heck of a lot cheaper than going to a stock maker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheyenne Bowdie Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Ethan, Don't know that he still does it, but Shotgun Bill makes custom stocks for his custom guns. Always found him reliable and reasonable. I don't have his phone # anymore, and don't live in MI any more either. Check with Colt McAllister, he should be able to help you get in touch with him.
