🔴 INFORMATION ABOUT LBJENNINGS GUNSTOCKS

This is information for you guys, who like checking out my stock builds. As of today, all of my builds, that I can post, will be in this thread, called "lbjennings gunstocks". I will try and remember to put a little red ball "🔴" in the starting page of every new stock. Once a few stocks are posted, you will have to do some searching. When you open "lbjennings Gunstocks ", click on the little bar at the top right, that says "display modes", and choose "threaded mode", that will make searching a little easier.
Hopefully, you will be able to check here, if you want to see what I'm building.

🪀🔴 STOCK 189, MAPLE BENCHREST 🔴

If Mother Nature will cooperate, I'm gonna try to do a little work on my buddies benchrest stock this weekend. This stock is going to have some nice figure. You can also see the receiver I'm using is a Grandmaster, with a rear hold down screw at the bottom.
Larry

I had to figure out a good setup for this receiver with the rear screw. Most of my stocks are bedded between the receiver and the trigger group and I'm not sure I can do that with this type receiver. the screw will be just behind the trigger guard. I wanted to pillar this setup, so this is what I am hoping is gonna work. The pillar is two 223 cases soldered end to end and cut off to fit the screw. The first step was, to make a practice run on an old stock. My thought, is to pillar the screw and try to make it similar to the front pillar.

Awesome job on the Walnut Thumbhole!!! Beautiful!

 

[s10/22]

On it Larry. Thank you for doing this for us. Appreciate it.

Awesome job on the Walnut Thumbhole!!! Beautiful!

Thanks for checking out my work. I think, building the thumbhole stock is the most challenging and also the most fun to do. I know it's gonna be a problem digging around in this thread to see my stocks, but my next stock should be a good one. My buddy gave me a nice chunk of figured maple and wants me to build him a benchrest stock. I'll be posting more pictures soon.

🪀 Stock 189

The action is inlet and seems to be pretty tight. My next step will be to make sure the barrel is fitting ok left and right. after the barrel seems ok, I'll get that rear screw and the front take down screw drilled out and pillared. My practice run seemed to go pretty easy, just hope drilling into the maple stock goes smooth.

🪀 STOCK 189

Today, my buddy text to tell me, he finally had all the pieces for this benchrest build. I need to get everything so I can make sure the receiver and trigger group will drop into the inlet without any problems. He tells me, this rifle is gonna be set up to punch paper at 300 yds. Knowing him, if he says this 22 is going to shoot at 300, I won't argue. This is the guy that bought my first stock 7 years ago and told me I could do this.

🪀STOCK 189

This afternoon, I got a chance to do a little work on the stock

 

[lbjennings]

🪀 STOCK 189

I got the pillars installed and the action seems to be very stable. If any of you guys decide to use a receiver like this, keep in mind, you will like the end results, but you are going to earn it.
After the epoxy sets for 24 hours, I'll start shaping the stock.

the stock pictured was one of my favorites :bthumb:

Thanks for checking out my work. This stock was what got me interested in building. My buddy had given me this stock because it wasn't useable. It looked like someone used a hatchet to cut the inletting. You couldn't put an action in the wood. I had to cut the middle out and replace it. It's hard telling how many hours I had in this rebuild. When I finish, I give it back to him. He couldn't believe I turned it into a useable stock. It has beautiful wood. When I visited with my buddy yesterday, he got it out to show me. Said He is giving it to his daughter.

what I liked most about the stock was how you thought outside the box with the direction of the laminate in order to fix it, and that gave it a unique, and pleasing look at the same time..

I think most would have just cut the sides off (or at least the barrel channel and action inletting portion of the stock), replaced the entire center of the stock, and then just laminated the sides back on in a more traditional laminate stock orientation
