M17 3006 rifle stock wanted

#1 Post by docjr »

I recently bought one of these with a sporterized stock, anyone know where I can get an original military stock? Pref for M17 but would consider a p14 stock even. Plus related parts, top wood etc.

I got a private message from "the running man" but got to do 15 posts to read it! Can you reply here? Thanks.

Photos of rifle attached.

US Model of 1917 Eddystone. (Remington's factory in Pennsylvania) Bolt stamped R (for Remington). Barrel stamped E (for Eddystone) over a "flaming bomb" over 11-17 near front sight. Original sights and sling swivels. Decent bore with plenty of rifling.

That is a fine looking rifle. A stock will not be a lot of money, the problem will be tracking one down as they tend to be found sitting under benches and in the corners of workshops. You could try Terry Abrams, I can find a number for him if you wish and Christel can email you as she will have your forum details. Chris Goodwin at C&G Rifles might have something as well. Other than that just have a hunt around the internet and see what comes up.

Price wise anywhere from GBP25 to GBP75 is my guess.

Fultons at Bisley might be worth a try but probably wont be cheap if they have one!
Norman Clark at Rugby might be worth a phonecall.
