Custom cut and shaped stocks

I like both of them.
I tried the spray thing on a plastic stock for another rifle.
Spraying is an art of its own.
I think if we ever have a Marauder get together you might be able to modify some stocks while wait.
Too, you can take orders for new stocks.
Or, we can send our stock to you.
Or, you can order more stocks from Crosman and we can send ors as an exchange and you charge for material, labor and shipping.
They look great.

It looks like you have skateboard tape on the air tube?

It is stair grip tape I picked up at Menards.

Knew it was something like that.
Stocks look great.
Maybe I send you mine and you send me the black one. :lol:

Anyone could do it really. I just used basic tools and took my time. I am a house painter by trade so the finishing was no big deal for me. The bed liner hides a lot of the imperfections from sanding or damage.

99% of the time it's the shooter, not the gun.

I like the cut out you did SHOOTINIT. I wanted to do this too but was concerned I wouldn't be able to get the hole saw straight thru. So it was the same on both sides. The bed-liner is pretty tough and has held up well for me. It really helps to grip the rifle and makes it "feel" lighter to me.
