Never ordered from these folks but I did see a You tube video where a guy had one of there sling and stock covers. It looked well done and nice to me.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

This is the old stock cover I had on my Big Boy rifle but sold it with the rifle. Anyhow, I just ordered another one exactly the same for my Henry 1860. It offers more protection for the stock than the Ricochet Roy one I have. I was surprised how small the Ricochet Roy one is and expected it to cover more area. I love the leatherwork but it just seems small to me. If I have one on the rifle I want more protection, especially in the bush.

Just ordered this one from gunstockcover.com;

I see what you mean, but I guess that the only thing that I can say is that they are both sure beautiful.

I may rub some neatsfoot oil into the new one to bring out the leather grain and tone it down a little.

The fringed one at the top is what I am thinking for my 1885 High Wall when it shows up. It's actually made of deerskin, with cowhide underneath at the bottom where it laces up. I would rub some oil into it to darken it up though.
