    Nah, Allen used one of my old FN large ring mauser actions from a Husky. The ZG photo is on the ‘BRNO 601 rings’ thread (but the photo keeps rotating has a mind of its own)!

    If you chopped it to 16” and put a suppressor on it’d pretty useful

    Boy you got some nice stuff @HandH , the spare ZG stock has an unusual chequering pattern to grip , did you cut that ? Do your ZG rifles have cheek pieces ?

    ZG and Sakos

    Neither of the ZG stocks have cheekpieces. Both have factory checkering, the spare one with black recoil pad was originally on rifle, Kevin Gaskill just brushed up the finish and ran over the checkering. The original stock is slightly slimmer in all proportions, especially the wrist. Kevin restocked the Sako L579 Forester 308 too.

    It’s a very nice bit of wood on that spare stock for a Fifties Brno , never seen one with that little reverse finger of checkering where you thumb goes over , just when you think you know all variations something new shows up , very cool thanks for sharing
