If Larry had bought and used a magnifine glass when he was younger, he would'nt be cross eyed.

[thedarkinhell]

wood is the best just because it looks beautifull and holds so good

[xethanxflipsburgers]

@thedarkinhell depends... i like the wood finish, but i really like composite. both work well, but the plastic doesnt weigh as much, and can look just as good with a good paintjob.

[thedarkinhell]

@xethanxflipsburgers plastic is handy becouse it`s freaking light but i like wood because it looks beautifull and is realy reliable

He's the wizard of gunsmithing. He's Harry Potterfield.

I think a hollow titanium stock would be the ultimate stock, esp if u had larry's money, as it wouldn't give a shit about any weather conditions, still be lightweight and not scratch easily.

[sc00ny]

@9x19mmProductions

Would it not be really cold to the touch?

[9x19mmProductions]

@sc00ny

interesting point, im sure there is an appropiate coating available to help with this.

[daniel0663]

Hi, what did you use to hollow the wood? where the spring is?

Did you use a chisel?

Thanks in advanced.

[leifericson923]

HI, I'm Larry Potterfield from Midway USA, and Chuck Norris has nothing on me.

[robertceeisblazin]

i like the look of the wood, but i'd have to go with fibre glass

[GeneralG1810]

@robertceeisblazin Meet half way and go with a laminate, thats what Ive got with my Kimber and it shoots fine.

[airsoftguy85rocks]

I'd take the fiber glass stock

@1337chsacker I not to sure where your coming from comparing teak to pine?

[Mchermsquatch]

@amishterminator

Soviet WWII era weapon stocks are usually made of whatever was available. My M91/30 was made in 1942 it's birch, my brothers was made in 1944 and it's a lightweight wood (ash I believe) soviets were all about making due. The model of weapon is irrelevant to stock material.

[amishterminator]

@1337chsacker thats because the svt40 is a gas operated rifle with a muzzle break. Most high powered hunting rifles are bolt action for their superior accuracy so that means you feel all the recoil. Why do you think the mosin nagant stocks are a heavy hardwood?

[hidethisnine]

Ok Larry, its time for you to write a book so we can access your knowledge from our workbenches.

[desighnedmilitent]

@hidethisnine hell id just get a lap top and take it out to my shop.

[PatTheRiot]

@hidethisnine Or maybe its time you get a laptop granpa.

[creekrocker]

@hidethisnine get some language writing programs that turns voice from a mic into a word document, then put your mic up to the speaker and let him talk, then print it into pages for a book :).

[andypandycool]

what woods are best?

[amishterminator]

a hardwood stock looks nicer but i dont like the extra weight on small caliber rifles. wood stock for weight all the way on my .30 cal rifles

[MrDan747]

id go the composite, fibreglass or the carbin fibre stocks as there tough and as he said if well bedded it will not move :)

[TheKodiak72]

did u not listen to what he said. its not the stock, its the bedding of the action in the stock

[BobbyJoe159262]

i would like wood

[snatchbox89]

larry potterfield is a bad ass if i could i would love to be his apprentice

[LeonPao]

@snatchbox89 You can send him a mail and he´ll answer for sure (I did so long ago).

[ECTBWHO]

Interesting...
