Modifying a Composite Stock

October 25, 2009

This is a H&H Ian Robertson stock that I modified the pistol grip on to match the owner’s wooden stocks that I have done in the past that were Culbertson patterns with a slightly larger pistol grip.  I modified the grip to make it larger, matched the color and the silver pattern, installed butt plates, removeable cheek piece, bedding for a Barnard action, and made the trigger guard.  The stock is a composite stock – from time to time I do work on composite stocks, although most of my stock work is with wood.  Working with composite materials stems from when I spent years building custom motorcycles – show bikes.
