This was my idea and join effort with Parker, something that looks
easy to make but it's actually not .... lol.... , thanks to Parker who
put in alot of time into it while I was busy at work slaving ... lol....
Now it's done, I just have to apply the final coating with true oil.
I installed all my 597's with VQ hammer & extractor for less hassle
on choosing ammo and lighter trigger pull.

Nicely done. How much inletting was there to do? It looks like the bulk of it is a rectangular pass through in the third and fourth pic's. Are the receiver and trigger group one section or does the stock support both separately and require precise inletting to mate the sections?

As always, cool work.

Parker101 did an excellent job of turning your idea into reality, thats for sure.

I had a chance to examine this beauty, in hand, at Sniper's place, and the "futuristic" design feels great, and shoulders beautifully. The grip angle is perfect for my preference, and the only change that I personally would have made, would be the addition of a palm swell on the right side of the PG area. As is, it would be great as an ambi stock. Beautiful colaboration gentlemen !!

Thank you, Gents.
Perhaps we will try it tonight, if we get a chance.

Here is fully dress, I'm just not sure weather to remove the sight and
install a lower scope mount.

Hey Thanks for vid, Parker ..... very nice ....

Not much for the scope but the gun is absolutely accurate .....
55 yards hitting center of 1" circle is a piece of cake with offhand
standing position and the reason behind it, it's all in the stock ....

The right stock fits the shooter .... it's a bullseye ..... yahooooo.....
