Jaeger Buttplate
« on: March 12, 2021, 04:30:30 PM »
Need to inlet a Pecatonica curvy buttplate onto their walnut jaeger stock.   Up to now I have only inlet plain plates that were fairly straight.

In keeping with my tenet of..." There's a reason shoemakers make shoes and gunmakers make guns"... I already know I am out of my league and  haven't a clue as to how to go about this.  Not looking to turn a $700 component set into a $500 rifle, I thought I'd ask.

Thx

Greg
