To add a bit to my previous post (I lost some when my iPad had a hiccup ) if you look at original Roper grips or the faithful repros like those from Keith, you will note that they display some profiling when viewed from the rear that is somewhat foreshadowing of the much loved “Coke-style” stocks the factory developed in the Fifties. I feel like the current Altamont “Coke Bottle” offering, if paired with their relatively well done interpretation of the Roper checkering pattern would make a product which, while still not up to the original or current handmade offerings, would provide a set of stocks that would catch a lot of the Roper spirit in an affordable factory offering. Am I the only one who sees this possibility?
