I have a specialty grade regular frame, 12ga, HOT, ejector, beaver tail forend with Montecarlo stock that's completely ruined from altering, grafting, shortening etc. Does anyone know of a pattern anywhere that I could have duplicated for this gun to restock. Thanks Zachary

I'm going to give this a shot. My understanding is that a Monte Carlo stock was a special order and made to order. So no two will be exactly a like unless the same person ordered and requested it. So with that being said if I were going to spend the money to restock this gun. I would take the stock you have and use wood and automotive body filler to get the dimensions that I needed and the shape I wanted and have it duplicated. Then you would have a good pattern for future projects.

Thanks Eric. I appreciate that. Definitely doable and would fit the best. Zachary

I agree with Eric. Build the pattern that you want from a junk LCS butt stock. Shoot the pattern butt stock to be sure it is correct and when it is adjusted perfectly have it duplicated. Please save the pattern. I will need it some day soon. posted by Jent.
