Does anyone know of a source for a replacement stock for a Savage 301 single shot shotgun stock?  I little while back I picked up a Savage 301 as a cheap starter gun for a buckaroo.  I shortened the factory stock and my son used it last year.  He has now upgraded to a SxS and I'd like to put an adult sized stock back on the Savage 301.  I contacted Savage directly about this but they are unwilling or unable to sell me a stock.

 

EDIT:  See update below, in short Savage gave me a new one for free.

There's a synthetic one on E-Bay $50 with free shipping or Best Offer.

 

I have no dog in the fight, just passing it on.

Don't throw out that shortened stock.  I cut down a Stoeger for my son when he was ten, got a replacement when he outgrew the short one and sent it down the road to another junior a couple of years later.

Just following up on this in case anyone else ends up in my situation. 

 

I tried calling Savage and was directed to their customer service email/messaging system.  I sent an email to Savage requesting to buy a replacement stock.  I received a response (possibly Ai) that politely explained any and all repairs needed to be done at the factory.  I responded that no repairs were needed, just needed a new stock.  They responded with a prepaid FedEx return label with instructions to send the shotgun back for "repairs."  I sent the shotgun in and received it back 2-3 weeks later with a new stock installed free of charge.  A big A+ for Savage's customer support in my experience.

I have a Stoeger 20 ga. SxS Youth Model that I had bought for my wife when she was shooting cowboy. She no longer shoots, and the shotgun was just sitting in the safe. I decided to look for a full length stock for it, but every place was out of stock, and the price was around $125. Then on Amazon I found this 1" thick slip on pad, LimbSaver Classic Slip-On Recoil Pad, 1" LOP. I bought one for $35 and it was perfect! It brought the LOP to an adult length, and I can take it off if she or the grandsons want to shoot, plus I now take it out now and then to a match.
