I am considering a kit. I am 6'4" and would like to build something around the Rice Golden Age Swamp 48". I have been looking and have yet to find a kit that utilizes that barrel. Does anyone know of a kit that can use it? Thank you!
 
Most of the pre-carves are made for 44" barrels. Possibly 46". (or shorter). If you have a rather long muzzle cap you might be able to splice some wood to the front that the splice will be hidden under the MC though. It sort of depends on how they milled the stock to deal with the transition area behind the MC. If it's for a rather straight stock and grooved MC you should be ok. If it's for a MC that is not grooved and the RR hangs out there unsupported, the long space of "open area" might look a little goofy. Obviously, if you are building from a blank your options are pretty much wide open.

Since you are that tall though, you are probably going to need a longer LOP than most of the kits are made for.
