Right Stocks for 66-2
Got a 66-2 at March gun show. Of course it had a monogrip on it. Did not have any round butt wood grips that I liked on it. Started to look on ebay. Nothing struck my fancy. What am I to do?
So I had a brainstorm....... had a beat up set on Herrett S.B. checkered target stocks. I could not find a before picture of them. I put them on a r.b. 10, & traced the right profile on the backs with a pencil. I cut them, shaped and sanded trial & error. Nice wood though. Then instead of Tru-Oil, I used Minwax spray lacquer. (a 1st for me) I did not want a super gloss finish so I did not buff them. So, for basically nothing, these look & feel good to me. Bob
