My sincere condolences to Kim on the loss of his wife. Nothing could be more individually devastating than the departure of a spouse to the afterlife.
I have long used Ahrends stocks on S&Ws that I felt a need to customize to my individual tastes - they always had a style that I found both visually pleasing and functionally perfect for the gun's intended use.
It pains me to learn that they may no longer be available. Perhaps, like Ropers, in the future genuine Ahrends stocks will become sought after collectibles, if not already following this announcement.
Hang in there Kim. You have done very well in your craft, and are much appreciated for your diligent efforts. Best wishes.
John
