Furrosious ferreter 499 Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Has any body attemped to make one themselves? Ive got a hw97 sitting in a hw77 stock designed for iron sights use. So eye to scope alignment is not the best. I plan to raise the cheek rest by about an inch. Im not going to make it adjustable im just going to use dowells cut to the correct length. I think...

philpot 4,982 Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 This might be both easier and certainly much quicker. http://www.recoilsystems.com/combraiser.php There is also the Bear Tooth system, again fast and cheap which allows you to get the correct height. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Beartooth-Comb-Raising-Kit-2-0-Shotgun-Rifle-Butt-Stock-Brown-No-Loops-Model/264314664856?epid=2256011669&hash=item3d8a61b798:g:ItQAAOSwkvFafa9L This caught my eye and represents good value, certainly the route long term I would take, in my humble opinion, dowels are just not strong enough and not too difficult to break. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Air-Rifle-Adjustable-Cheek-Piece-Risers-Cut-To-Suit-Stock/113834968718?hash=item1a8117c68e:g:RkQAAOSwr0ZXNkFK Phil Quote Link to post

Not knocking your work ff but that is one stunning stock not seen one like that for a long time just that i think you have spoilt it with that riser it would look a lot better with two alloy rods in it . just my opinion mind . but if it works it works atvbjimmy 1 Quote Link to post
Furrosious ferreter 499 Posted July 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) To be fair i did think of alloy rods but i had no means of getting them. Its strong 16mm dowell I have no money. And i thought the all wood would look nice. I can always paint them silver! FF Edited July 31, 2019 by Furrosious ferreter 1 1 Quote Link to post
