Hi. I just thought I would share my first try at making some stocks for my new flattop 44.I made a few mistakes when fitting the right panel but to be honest I didn't think I would even end up with something workable. Everything was done with hand tools. Coping saw,files and sandpaper. I have never been much for wookwork but I just Took a few hours on and off to give my hands a break. In the end they came out a little thicker than I planned but when I attached the grip screw. The nut was too thick so I couldn't make them any thinner without grinding into it. But all in all was fun project. So much so that I'm already starting my next set!
