Re: Maybe not

This is a pre-World War I Rigby stock, which PhysDoc spotted on eBay and was kind enough to call my attention to. It represents the last element needed to restore a pre-World War I slant box magazine rifle, which Lon Paul has been commissioned to do. Both of us think highly of the design of the stock, other than the odd angle of the buttplate, which will not be retained. The barrel and action were already in Lon's possession.
