What Reviewers Are Saying

Fitting and Adjustments

85%

A common theme among reviewers is the need for extensive fitting and adjustments. Many customers expected the stock to be ready to use but found significant material that needed removal to achieve a proper fit. This has led to frustration, with some questioning the accuracy of the product's 'pre-finished' label.

Quality versus Expectations

70%

Several reviews highlight a disconnect between the product's marketing as 'pre-finished' and the actual quality received. Reviewers express disappointment, feeling that the stock requires more work than an unfinished product would, which detracts from overall satisfaction.

Aesthetic Appeal

40%

Despite the fitting issues, some reviewers appreciate the overall look and finish of the stock. They find that it has potential but are frustrated that they must invest significant time and effort to achieve the desired appearance on their rifles.

Value for Money

65%

The perceived value for money is a recurring topic, as some customers believe that for a 'pre-finished' product, the cost may not justify the level of work required to make the stock usable. This has led a few reviewers to recommend opting for an unfinished version instead.

Buttstock too wide

I ordered the stock to replace a customer's broken one. I assumed that because it is "pre-finished" there would be no external fitting required. The forend fits well. The buttstock fits pretty well onto the receiver (only minor fitting required there). However, the stock is about 1/4 inch wider than the butt-plate. So I ended up having to sand it all down to fit the butt-plate, then re-finish it. I would recommend just buying the unfinished version.
