Bringing a No1 MkIII* back from bubba land. The forend I want to use is marginal though, old DP rifle. Not much out there without spending more than the rifle is worth.
Is the stock even usable? I'm not sure. If yes, I'm thinking that I should strengthen and repair the inside of the stock where the receiver sits. Something along the lines if what Lithgow did, with wooden or metal recoil pads and such. I'm not sure how to approach this thou. Epoxy and then shape with a dremmel and drill for the pad?
Any thoughts would be welcomed.
