    Possibles bags and how the straps are attached

    I was given this bag about 15 years ago and I love the darn thing. Notice how the leather strap is attached to the sides rather than the back. This allows me to fold the cover behind the bag and not have to mess with it while at the range. I havent seen many bags made like this, and I cant...

    Sutherland Wells polymerized tung oil

    Do those of you that use the Sutherland Wells products use the sealer, and then use the polymerized tongue oil topcoat? Or would it be better to skip the sealer? I know there are several threads explaining the use of their medium lustre polymerized tongue oil, but I havent seen any discussion of...

    Efficient patch cutting

    Just thought I would share my method for cutting patches. I use a rotary fabric cutter, a ruler and a self healing mat. I used to use scissors but have found this method to be far superior. If the rotary cutter has a very sharp blade, I can cut up to 4 layers of fabric at the same time. I like...

    Can this stock be fixed?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I will give them a call to get some estimates for the repair. Hopefully that info will aid in recovering some money from USPS as well.

    Can this stock be fixed?

    This particular rifle is only 4’ long. Im thinking a hard foam lined gun case placed inside a box might be the answer.

    Can this stock be fixed?

    I am located in central Illinois, just west of Springfield. If anyone has any recommendations on where to take it, that would be great. If not, I would probably be willing to pay to ship it further out to have the repairs done.

    Can this stock be fixed?

    Thank you all for the responses. It has given me hope that this rifle is not lost. Now I just have to figure out who to send it to for the fix.

    Can this stock be fixed?

    It was shipped assembled. It was wrapped in some sheets and placed in a cardboard box. My best guess is that it was thrown over the back of a seat and landed on the side in just the wrong way. Impossible to ever know for sure.

    Can this stock be fixed?

    I am in contact with the seller and he is reaching out to USPS. Luckily he had the shipment insured. What would you guys charge to fix this? Also, I am not confident enough at this point in time to attempt the fix myself. I will be looking to ship this to someone more qualified, and who can make...

    Can this stock be fixed?

    I purchased this rifle from a forum member a couple of weeks ago. Everything about the process went great until I opened the box. It was shipped via USPS and it appears that they were rather rough with the package. The stock is curly maple and is broken all the way through. I am hoping you guys...
