Hi guys,

I wish Turner Customs still made the Barracuda but that is not the case. I designed the stock and made them till I could not keep up and then had Altamont make them for me. Due to problems beyond my control I had to give the rights to the stock to Altamont. They now are the sole producer of the stocks in it's "near" original form. They did make the change to cover the buffer pin at the request of Ruger. They have since added a re-enforcement dowel up through the pistol grip and it is covered by a medallion of some sort in the bottom of the grip.

I might suggest that if you are interested in one of the stocks, contact them and tell them Mike sent you. They are waiting for some new colors that will be machined as soon as it gets to their factory. I talked with them on Monday and as of then the new colors had not arrived. They do however have the std laminates and walnut, right and left hand. I don't know if they have any magnums made up or not but a call wouldn't hurt!

800-626-5774 ask for Elizabeth

I will someday soon have a new stock out so be watching!

Xavier Breath, Altamont makes all the Barracudas, including the RRR stocks.

Altamont made some Barracudas that did not have the pin covered before Ruger ask them to make the change. Hard to say if it is an original or not.

Hey bass singer,

I have no idea. I know they do their own photography and I think they do their own website work. Other than that I really don't know any thing else. I am sure that they will want to get the new colors made and photographed before they update the site, or at least that is how I would want to do it.

Sorry I could not be of more help.

Now for the question I have wanted to ask you for a long time.......do you sing bass?

Mike
