Thread: Mannlicher stock

Where on earth could i get a mannlicher stock? Not thw full length either. Is their anywhere that makes a wood or synthetic one of some sort?

Mannlicher Schonauer, what model ?

I need one to for a 1903, I just got a line on a guy in Aussie making some !

You can get a Mannlicher steel forend from Brownell's. It's a start.

Anyone making wooden stocks should be able to make one. I have one with a warped fore end so would be interested to know also.

It's from about 2000.not exactly sure of the model. Let us know if you get that guy in oz sorted for one. Apparently you can get them in the UK for 700quid.

These guys could make one for you. Stager Sport NZ Ltd, Sporting Goods, Alexandra

Try this guy. he makes stocks and knives. vongruff@gmail.com or 0272786384

Cheers

This may be of interest to you. I have a LE no 4 stock with warped fore end that I'll be straightening soon by this method.

No, "just" H20 steam. The genius of it lies in the plastic sock wrapped round the beam, beam then bent into position with bag in place, and steam applied into the bag. It will eventually penetrate anything given time. A bent rifle stock forend will not require hours for sure. The plastic sock technique makes steam bending possible for any hobbyist.

I've got some nylon sleeves that I used to hot melt closed for medical instrument hot air sterilisation, no longer use for them, half a metre of one will do just nicely for my No 4 which currently throws bullets left thank's to it's left-deviating forend.
