New buttstock?

Post by babo » Thu Jan 31, 2019 1:36 pm

Hello all!

I was thinking about shortening my Length of pull on my henry big boy steel carbine rifle in order to decrease the overall length of the rifle itself. But I really want to avoid taking it to the gunsmith and having them chop off the beautiful wood. Any body have any experience with any aftermarket stocks? i honestly cant seem to find any on google besides boyds stocks, but i dunno if the ones they sell for henry would actually even fit.

Please let me know!

I would think that unless you get an exact replacement from H.R.A. some fitting will be required.

Have not really handled a carbine, but it seems it is pretty short to begin with. Maybe try a Mares Leg. :) anyway, hope you find a replacement that suits you. Might pose the question to Henry. Maybe there is a youth model stock that will retrofit.
