    Hi, nice, but instead of the A2 I would have put a Mchale:McMillan Tactical Stocks, McMillan Fiberglass Stocks, Synthetic Stocks, Tactical Stocks

    That would have looked more like current wooden stock.

    I am familar with the McMillan fibreglass " McHale " stock , as it is basically a McM glass version of Parker Hales wooden stock used on their M85 & M87 rifles .
    My M85 has a McHale stock , and you are right they are a very nice size/shape , and very over looked , I like it over all the other Tactical type stocks that McMillan make .

    BUT , as its meant to be a reproduction of the Canadian C3A1 rifle , then I am limited to either a old wooden stock off a TX1200 Parker Hale target rifle , or a McMillan A2 fibreglass stock , and in a rifle like this , I prefer glass over wood .

    But of all the McM stocks , I seem to like the A2 & the McHale stocks over all others .

    Cheers Chris

    hi Chris

    Whats the shiny bit at the front, looks to small to be a suppressor?

    Nice rifle!

    Cheers
