Gentlemen:
Thought you might like to see how a friend's C-Stock was saved. He had a sporterized stock that was cut off above the strap band. He also came up with a piece of the front of another stock that had been more drastically sporterized, below the strap band.
Step-1
We used a blind-cut on the main stock and created a tab on the front piece so the front part of the stock would insert into the main stock about an inch and a half. We then covered the barrel with plastic wrap and JB welded everything together holding until cure with rubber basnds.
Step-2
Unable to make a true dove-tail, we opted to add a spline and later use 4 dowels to achieve tension between the 2 stock pieces.
Step-3
Once the JB Weld cured, we then created a channel to match both stocks and used JB Weld to insert the spine in-place. This was clamped in-place and set aside to cure. The last step was to drill 4 holes, offset so as to not compromise the thickness of the spline and JB Weld in-place.
We had fun and saved this poor stock.
Thanks for viewing.....
