Randingo Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Looking to have a leather butt stock cover made for my 73. Please let me know who does this kind of work. THANKS!!!
Yul Lose Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Double Diamond makes some really nice butt stock covers. PM me for his contact info.
Abe E.S. Corpus SASS #87667 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Lots of companies sell covers that fit unaltered rifles (would that be a “stock stock”?). I have a couple from Rod Kibler Saddlery with border stamping, nothing very fancy but they offer other embellishments. My wife’s long guns have shortened buttstocks so a “factory” cover was not an option. I shipped the stocks to Ricochet Roy who made covers to fit. I was well pleased.
Billy Boots, # 20282 LTG-Regulator Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Sassy and I have several obtained thru Cowboy Shooters Supply. They are not supper fancy but with our alias and some tooling. All a tad "over a Grant but under a Lincoln". They are done by their supplier who does not advertise on web. If you shoot any where in the NETX/SEOK area lyou might run across Texas Mean Gene, he makes some very nice tooled covers and as CSS covers, for whatever your stock cut is. I believe these also under a Lincoln. Aspen Filly does more of the fancy class, but with some awesome "style points" . As I remember Palo Duro offers some fairly inexpensive, but very functional butt covers.
Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 I use functional covers from Mernickle. See https://www.mernickleholsters.com/shop/Cowboy-Action-Accessories-c53182392. However, those custom covers do look stylish.
Rip Snorter Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Just recently got a new CZ Coach. Very well crafted except for the buttplate, which is a simple, stamped, sharp edged steel plate attached with small modern Philips screws. Couldn't figure out why - here is my answer, a lot of SASS shooters use butt stock covers. Never cared for them, but between an upcoming gun show and NC Ordinance I should be able to find a repro hard rubber / plastic one that will work. Had to do that on my original '97 and it worked just fine.

Singin' Sue 71615 Posted February 6, 2022 Posted February 6, 2022 You know...when you aren't specific, you are gonna get the gammitt!!! I like simple, so made mine from a) thick material b) faux leather and c) appolstery naugahide. I just wanted to 'hide' the recoil pad. And have a bit of 'grip'. Many make standard ones... Some can really design. Best starting place, I think, is to go to your SASS Vendors index and look there. SASSNET.COM home page
DeaconKC Posted February 6, 2022 Posted February 6, 2022 @Singin' Sue 71615 you murdered some poor innocent naugas to make your buttstock covers?!?! I'm so disillusioned...

Besides, vegeterian's are the ones to watch...they are eating all the beasties FOOD!
Randy Saint Eagle, SASS # 64903 Posted February 6, 2022 Posted February 6, 2022 I got one like this from Rod Kibler Saddlery, I like the alias and SASS number on the medallion! http://www.rodkiblersaddlery.com/files/QuickSiteImages/Website-Specialty_Products/butt_cover_06_.jpg Randy

I was well pleased. I am also very satisfied with my three covers from Ricochet Roy. He makes them for a lot of different gun models. For my Sharps he hadn't got a template yet, so I made one of paper and sent it to him. Worked well!
