Re: 400 Whelen "Flagged Mauser"

The rib needs to be resoldered and probably knocked off because the gun was hot blued.

Turnbull can resolder the rib and rust blue it.

Restocking is not cheap. 14.75" is a very long pull. If the stock is nice, I'd go with a Kick Ez pad which comes as thick as 1 & 3/8". They work very well.

I'm sure Turnbull could also add the pad.

It's not that hard a kicker. Mine has a Steel checkered trapdoor buttplate.

If you wish to restock, look at Richards Micro fit Old Classic model in English Walnut.
