Need More Stock Length - Model 60

Post by PapaDawg on Thu 29 Sep 2011 - 10:08

While deciding on which Savage MK II to order, I picked up a Marlin Model 60 and quickly discovered the stock needs to be extended and I'm having trouble finding a source for stock extenders or butt plate extensions. Probably need to add at least an inch to the length and any and all help/advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks All -

Buy a recoil pad and trim it down to fit.

I've thought about that, but would first like to try and find something more permanent that I can use - some type of insert between the end of the stock and the current butt plate -

Thanks -

Boyds gunstocks makes a special run of tactical stocks for the Model 60 every about every 3 or 4 months, check with them.

Just looked at Boyds website they have many more stocks for the Model 60 than they did a few months ago. Guess the special runs selling out in a few days, got them on the ball.

Thanks again Bubba - will look into it. Looks like my response to your first post disappeared - couldn't have been a mod action, huh? Smile With that said, I'll say it again - Go 'Dawgs!"

Do appreciate your help -

If it was a mod action, it wasn't me.

Thought you might've been jackin' w/ me when my first post thanking you for the Boyd's info went "poof." Had a "Go 'Dawgs" comment - nothing against the rules (I guess Smile )
