Any ideas on where to get replacements ?

Do, or do not.
There is no try.

Excuse the butt in; but the B78 uses a pistol grip stock and the later 1885 uses a straight grip stock. At least I think that's right.....

That's almost correct - only B-78's in .45-70 had a straight grip stock
All B-78 forends had a slight schnobble tip..

Now I lay me down to sleep
A gun beside me is what I keep
If I awake, and you're inside
The coroner's van is your next ride
Might check to see if Treebone has a pattern for one.

I would like to find-just like factory supplied wood.
Nothing super fancy .. I looked a bit and pretty much gave up.
Now I know why the barreled action was so cheap..The current owner couldn't find anything either.

Have you called Browning?
CPA makes Browining stocks in any fanciness you desire.
