Hey guys, I finally managed to get ahold of another computer (thanks to a buddy who helped me get a job at his work). My old one crashed, so I haven't been able to get on the internet except on the iPod. So, because of that, I have only been able to post threads and reply to them. Couldn't post to YouTube or Photobucket.
This thread is a continuation of the thread I started last September titled, "Would You Like To See These Stocks On The Market?" (On The High Road, link at bottom of this post). I did post a link on this forum, but I lost it. The thread contained my ideas for making affordable replacement stocks for the Mosin Nagant rifles modeled after more modern designs. The idea quickly took off, had a lot of likes, and had a lot of support from quite a few members (moreso than I had thought).
Through some help from other members, through donations, I was able to make the start on the project, even when I wasn't working. So firstly, a BIG THANK YOU to those who donated, LoonWulf, KAMAK, Savage1r, and there's one that I'm forgetting, but my appreciation is no less.
I started with the SV-98 design for the Mosin Nagant series of rifles through a popularity vote. Now, keep in mind, this stock that I'm about to show you my progress on is my first prototype. This will show me whether or not the materials I have chosen will hold up through the abuses of recoil, the elements, and some fair abuse. It probably isn't going to look too much like the SV-98, though the similarity is there. Once I know for sure that this is going to work using materials, I will build a more accurate rendition of the SV-98 stock, to which I'll build an accurate rifle on, to see exactly what kind of accuracy gains I'm going to get.
Here's a picture of the SV-98 design (drawn using Microsoft Paint):
