Whipped up some homemade risers...got tired of a poor cheek weld using scopes on my Backpacker and Custom Shop 1300 KT. Cut out some 4"x4"chunks of 1/8" plastic and formed them to fit the Crosman stock.

Great idea! Love those pumpers! This is definitely on my "must to do" list. I need to put some optics on my Crosman, with the eye sight failing, open sight's are useless. What are the makes of the scopes you have installed? Thanks!

I was in a recycling/re-purposing mode...

...the sourced material

I had bought a set of fender flares for my Polaris RZR side by side but didn't like how they functioned so took them off....a $175 mistake. The material is strong flexible HDPE textured on one surface and smooth on the other. Was easy to form with a heat gun.

What I use. Clamp bolt doesn't fully keep it tight on, so I'm just going to screw it on.

That ATI SKS riser was an inspiration to make my own out of the fender flare material...

used a heat gun and formed the plastic around a broom handle...then bent an angle on each side to match the angle of the stock...

I have a lot of material left...
